Default 08 z06 3lz Suspension

Looking for a z06 3lz from 08 but not sure how to tell if it has Magnetic ride suspension. Do all vettes have leaf spring? and add magnetic ride as an option? Is it just the shock absorb or are they IRS when they have magnetic ride? Sorry I am a noob when it comes to Vettes.

All c5/c6/c7 have leaf springs and are IRS. Mag ride was not even an option in 2008 for a z06. You would have an adjust **** on the center console for suspension modes. It is just adjustable shocks.

C6 Z06 didn't have mag ride as an option until 2011.

All C6 Vettes have IRS (hasn't been a solid-axle Corvette in 40+ years) and all have a transverse single leaf spring. No magnetic shocks in a C6Z until 2011 and they will have a large dial behind the shifter. Also, 3LZ is a trim package, which has nothing to do with suspension. Good luck with your search!
