2011 Inferno Orange Z06 with 29k miles, 3LZ option. 1 of 185 in this color I believe, out of ~28,000 cars. Asking $45kOBO, no trades. Has the carbon fiber package, so carbon fiber side skirts and front splitter (I believe a carbon fiber lip spoiler in the back as well?). 9/10 exterior, 10/10 interior.
Performance(the section you care about):
LS9 clutch with aluminum flywheel
Heads ported and milled .020 by LME in Texas (roughly 11.5:1)
Bronze valve guides
Polished stock intake valves
Manley exhaust valves
Comp Cams trunion upgrade
Katech K501 cam (235 / 251 @ .050, . 657/ .660 lift, 113 LSA)
With headers, intake, and 102tb the car made 630+whp.
Has stock headers and intake on it now, previous owner kept the aftermarket ones.. The butt dyno says about mid 500s whp.
Exterior:
Stock comp gray spyder wheels.
Rear tires are Pilot Super Sport 345/30/ZR19, brand new, 99% tread left (FYI that's like $800 in tires, thanks Michelin! lmao)
Front tires are Pilot Super Sport 275/35/ZR18
Brand new carbon fiber splitter up front
Interior:
3LZ option package
Nav
Black Leather dash and door panels with what looks like gray stitching.
I have installed a custom exhaust mode switch. The exhaust behaves as normal when it is off (valves open above 3.5k I think?), and exhaust valves are fully open with the switch on. Switch is in place of the cigarette lighter.
It's fast as ***. Really though. I'm partly selling for my own safety . You will need drag radials to hook first on the street, but these super sports do a pretty decent job. It's very controllable if you pedal it, your main concern will be running out of road. Also, this orange color is absolutely stunning in person. In the sunlight the metallic flakes really stand out, and in low light the orange looks very impressive.
Recent maintenance I've done:
New spark plugs.
New Map sensor.
New Battery.
Oil change 1k miles ago.
Replaced clutch fluid.
Shoot me a PM for contact details or more pics, thanks!
Just took it out today. This really is a no-compromises build, previous owner did all the mods and I have to hand it to him, he did a really good job. Clutch is butter smooth in traffic and around town, but doesn't skip a beat when you goose it. I would expect this cam to have drivability issues (bucking, surging, etc) but there really is none, chalk that up to a good tune. It cruises in 6th at 65mph with zero bucking.
Idle settles down around 1:35. Started with valves open, then closed them a couple times. I like the dual personality that the exhaust switch allows for. You can kind of fly under the radar (as much as you can with a bright orange vette...) with the valves closed, it's very quite. With them open...I don't know why you would want it any louder to be honest haha.
Bump! I have two 345 NT05 tires that WILL fit in the car if you would like to take them with you. Probably 50% tread left. Shoot me an offer, worst I can say is no =).

How long have you owned the car. What can you share about the history?
I've owned the car about a month. I saw it for sale and jumped on it, and it's honestly perfect. I wanted these exact mods and this exact color. However...when I was looking for a car I was leaning between keeping my current car and getting a Z06, or getting into a fast luxury sedan. I sprang on the vette, brought it home, then went and test drove an Audi S8 and fell in love lol. I also realize now that I do not like having to switch between two vehicles. I've been really anxious with the vette too because if there's even a hint of rain in the forecast I don't drive it.
As it sits this is a car you can bring home, drive, and enjoy and all you should really need to do is change the oil every few thousand miles. It has plenty of room for more mods and more power, but I think it is nicely balanced in its current form. It breaks necks(including mine) everywhere I take it.

Great looking car! Does it currently have the upgraded heads installed or stock? Your initial post has both listed??
Thanks
Has stock headers, not heads =). Heads are ported, milled, with bronze guides, dual valve springs, polished intake valves, manley exhaust valves, and aftermarkert pushrods (obviously lol).

Ah, thanks for the explanation. I read the post wrong. 🤓. Do you have the carfax on it? How many owners, accidents?
