But if you actually drive your C6, let us know how many miles you have racked up!


My '05 vert has 184,000 mi.
My '09 Z06 has 68,000 mi.

High milage drivers, UNITE!

not close to you but had 105,000 on my 2005 when I traded it in.

I have 28,000 on my GS which I have had about a year and a half.

I bought a 2006 coupe in March of last year that had only 7,500 miles on it...a true garage queen. In about a year and a half, I've put on about twice as many miles as the first owner put on in the 6 years he had it.

I love driving it everyday.

Just shy of 115,000 on my 07. Only 2 trips to dealer for warranty repair. Car is just fantastic!! C6's make great daily drivers that spoil you with the power and handling.

Took my youngest son to breakfast the other day and he said my car still smelled new.

Awesome that you can rack up that many miles.

2008 with 68k miles.....daily driver and it's been a fantastic and totally reliable ownership experience.

Just wondering at what mileage you did the clutch. I'm surprised I have not needed one yet.

Thanks in advance.

I've seriously slowed down in the past two years and only have 113K on my '08. I've still had fun driving through 47 states and over 400 passes down the 1/4 mi. It'll be nice to get back to traveling again sometime next year.
