Default [TX] 2011 Carbon Edition Z06 #147 Supersonic Blue (No longer for sale)

I am here to offer this ultra rare 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon Edition. Only 252 of these beauties were produced with this one being #147. Mileage is 18,XXX miles +/- and the VIN # is 1G1YL2DE1B5600147.

This 2011 Z06 Carbon Edition is finished in Supersonic Blue metallic with ebony leather interior. The Carbon Edition commemorates the 50th anniversary of Corvette’s first race in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This one is fully loaded with an MSRP of $100,360.00

Factory options per the window sticker include:

Corvette Z06 Base Price: $74,305
Z06 Carbon Special Edition: $15,705
3LZ Preferred Equipment Package: $7,170
Nav with AM/FM CD Player: $1,795
Indoor Vehicle Cover: $335
Battery Protection Package: $100
Destination Charge: $950
Total MSRP: $100,360

In 2011, Corvette engineers announced the limited edition Z06 Carbon, which melded the chassis and suspension of the ZR1 with the Z06’s 505 HP engine to produce the most balanced Corvette ever. Only 252 buyers opted for the Carbon Z06, which uses the same Brembo carbon ceramic brakes as the ZR1 with Carbon model-specific dark Grey metallic calipers. The Carbon also gets the ZR1’s 20-spoke wheels (painted Black to visually set the car apart) and the Michelin PS2 tires that were developed especially for the Z06 and ZR1 Corvettes. An enhanced cooling system and Magnetic Selective Ride Control were also added for the first time on the Z06, along with a special carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber aero body pieces and a leather interior trimmed with suede and custom stitching.

Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Carbon slots in right below ZR1. For the truly hard-core Corvette fanatic who likes to spend weekends thrashing his or her car at the track, there is only one Corvette worthy of consideration, the Z06. However, thanks to the ZR1, the lightweight, normally aspirated 7.0-liter coupe is no longer the absolute quickest Vette, but it is felt to have the most responsive handling. What it doesn’t have is the uber-cool carbon-ceramic brakes, carbon-fiber body panels and magnetic ride active damping system of its supercharged sibling. That can now be changed to past tense with the birth of the Z06 Carbon edition announced by General Motors. The Z06 Carbon was created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first appearance of the Corvette at the 24 Hours of Le Mans when John Fitch and Briggs Cunningham won their class and finished eighth overall. The Carbon edition is essentially a Z06 with a ZR1 chassis and some of the carbon skin. They will only come in two colors, Inferno Orange and Supersonic Blue. One element unique to the Z06 Carbon is its hood. The profile of the new carbon fiber hood is identical to that on the ZR1 but without a transparent window. That makes it the lightest hood ever on a Corvette and, according to chief engineer Tadge Juechter, it truly is a featherweight. ZR1 owners looking to swap out their hoods will be disappointed to learn that the Carbon hood will not fit their cars. Because of the absent window, the Z06 hood has different structure underneath that won’t clear on the ZR1.

This Carbon Edition is located in Houston, Texas. Its 100% stock besides tinted windows and a CQuartz ceramic coat paint protection. In addition, for Texas buyers the “CARBONZ” license plate will also be yours.

Thanks for looking.

Bump far an awesome car! At $50K, this car is a steal! It is the cheapest one I have seen that wasn't beat up or high mileage. I have no need for another C6, but man I sure want yours!

Thanks for the bump! Someone could get lucky, that’s for sure.

Default Loan

after many messages and telephone call, the news is that seller does not have the title. Seller wants buyer to transfer the asking money so that he can pay the bank. Then the bank will send him the title. After that seller will sell the car to buyer.
who is willing to pay sellers loan at the bank? I not.
one more frustrating experience of me with private sellers on this forum.

Ok sir, the car is no longer for sale. I have updated the thread on here to say that. Also I did respond to your PM and advised you that the car was no longer for sale. Also, when we talked I advised you that the car was financed through a credit union and you could pay the remaining balance off and the title would be sent to you. Also... I only received one phone call from you and we talked. So please keep your negative comments to yourself.

.
While not everyone's cup of tea, this type of transaction is commonplace.
I've done it on more than several occasions in the purchase of automobiles, motorcycles and boats. I've always done it at the bank, always had the transaction notarized, and I've never had a problem.

Not sure what happened here, but anyone listing an automobile with a lien should definitely disclose it in the OP.
