You don't say if it's auto or stick, but either way, sounds like you got a good deal provided it's a true Z51. Best was to check is on the product tag on the inside of the globe box cover.....look for the "Z51" code. That option originally included the GY Eagle F1 Supercar runflats, stiffer suspension, larger brake rotors (cross drilled), extra cooling for engine oil & trans & tighter gear ratios for the MN6 trans. I've had mine since new & it's been great.....enjoy yours!

I paid 27k for mine with 12k miles on it, stick/Z51/ etc, sound like your deal was reasonable
