What a coincidence, I just purchased a machine silver 08 3LZ ZO6 with 6200 original miles as well. I am the 3rd owner, however.

I just purchased a Jet Stream Blue 08 2LZ with 2075 original miles too. I am the second owner. Very happy with my purchase.

Congrats, Now get rid of those Goodyear's!! Especially if they're OE...which I suspect they are. Those are probably as hard as concrete by now. You're asking for trouble with those.

congrats.... I just picked up an '09 with 8900 miles on it, I'm the second owner. I think I may need some new tires though. The tires look to be in good shape, but a spirited drive on the freeway and they broke loose a couple of times. Looks like the date code might be on the inside sidewall, but have to assume they're OEM.

Z06 fun cars!

Crap! You got the exact color I was looking for, with the polished aluminum wheels (not chrome). Oh well, a 6200 mile 3LZ 08 machine silver ZO6, with the ebony/sienna interior, and polished aluminum wheels is a decent compromise.

OP, I absolutely love yellow too! Gray and yellow =

My GY's after 4 years were like ice skates...even though they had plenty of tread. I run the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position RFT's because I wanted to stay with a run flat tire. Highly recommended...they were developed specifically for the C6Z.

Hey, I saw that car on grand ave. It was sitting in front and I love yellow z06s. I saw the car and had to stop and see it. I looked it over and it was a nice car. I am positive you got it at that dealer on grand ave.

Nice car. Used to have a yellow z

Congrats on the purchase of your Z!

I also have a low mileage Z with the original goodyears. They do get a little slick and I need to get them replaced. MTPZ06 - how are the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position RFT's? Sticky enough? How much heavier are the RFT's versus non RFT's?
