Default 2018 Stingray Z51

Hi everyone. I saw this beauty in a dealership yesterday and just had to have it. It's a 1lt but has PDR/Nav and A8 plus the Z51 goodies. Just what I've been looking for the past two years and it fell in my lap in my little town of Prescott, AZ. I've owned '65, 94, 99, 04 Z06 and and 02 vert but this is the nicest one yet by far!

That is a nice red. Congrats. You will love the Z51 enhancements. I too vote for taking the dealer sticker off.

Great looking LBR!!!

Get that LAMB sticker off. If I owned a car dealership, I'd not do such of thing on sports cars. I'd just install a dealer's license frame and leave it at that.

Congratulations

What would have been the price difference between that compared to a 1lt GS with the same options?

Super nice color and car. Funny but the first thing I thought when I saw the pic was to remove the Lamb sticker. Others beat me to it.

My '18 is Torch Red, same as my '13 was. Still my favorite color, but that is a sharp looking car. Chrome wheels set it off. Basically the same color as my '16 CR-V, which was a big reason to buy it. Enjoy!
