Default New C6 owner

New C6 owner here. I had originally been planning on ordering a new 2019 Camaro SS when this pristine white '06 coupe turned up on the dealer's lot and I couldn't resist. Absolutely love this car!





It is all original, bone stock 3LT with both roofs. Only had 11,000 miles on the clock when I took ownership.

Thank you, Mr. Previous Owner, whoever you are!

Congrats and welcome! I thought 3LT had Nav and 4LT was convertable?

I believe nav was maybe a separate option? Looking at the '06 build options list, this has everything the 3LT package has, and there is no mention of nav.

Doesn't much matter to me, I'm going to be replacing the stock stereo with a Kenwood double DIN head with phone interface & backup camera anyway.

Great combo! Are the tires original? If yes, get some new ones quick!

Welcome and congrats and that gorgeous ride!! What phone holder is that? I use the pro clip but with my wallet case it doesn't stay in the clip as well as with thinner case. Looks like yours has a bottom section for the phone to rest on.

Wrong on both. 3LT does not include navigation and 4LT has nothing to do with the convertible option
Nav option code is U3U and convertible option code is 1YY67

Congratulations !!!! A white Corvette with red interior, you can't ask for more. Beautiful combo. I am glad you decided to get the vette instead of the camaro. You won't regret it.
