Default Just bought a Z06!!!

What a trip this has been. Changed my mind 100 times on what I wanted but on Saturday I found a great deal on a lightly used 2017 Z06 and while I was not super crazy about the color combo I went home and slept on it. Pulled the trigger today. It was raining today so I didn't really get on it during the test drive. But wow.

Details:

Super low mileage (~2,700ish miles) Arctic White with Red Interior, M7, 2LZ, still has new car smell. Carbon fiber hood insert and ground effects package. Carbon fiber stinger stripe. Data Recorder and Nav. Spectra Grey wheels with Machined Groove. Carbon Flash Badging. Transparent roof panel.

Saw your other thread. Arctic white with all those black accents looks pretty darn cool. Congrats, easy on that right foot now. 😉

Congrats - I think the color combo will grow on you. With the weather be careful driving with cold tires.

Nice. Enjoy and have fun. The real fun will have to wait until there is heat in the tires, but you still will have blast!

Actually I do. I don't understand the machined groove part, but they look great.

Thank you, sir. I appreciate your help in the process. And yes, Miss Lisa asked me last night if we would be doing Corvette type stuff as we've been doing all the Charger/Mopar stuff for the last 10 years (I've owned 4 Chargers since 2007).

I think once I gets the windows tinted it will look even better.
