I'm not Bill but it's kind of hard to tell without a close-up pic. I will say they look pretty good from that distance. They look sort of shiny and without pock marks. I'd take a close look when you get there. You know what to look for now.

I would not trade my Z07 brakes for dollars or doughnuts.. and as for tracking, as long as you maintain the pads there are no problems whatsoever.. they should outlast the car if you take care of them...I say go for it if it is right in your wheelhouse.. I prefer the 3LZ's over the plain black so I am biased. I would double check that the leather is on the front dash and not pulling up anywhere, some have had problems. Good Luck

Here is a thread that has some close-up pics of CC rotors with very low miles (1200 miles).

What's not to like about this?
Review Carmax and/or autocheck as well as VIS VIN report.

I bought it!

what a fun ride home!
It does have some lifting of the dash around the vent, I'll post some pics of it. Found a hole (fairly large) in the drivers side rear wheel well insulation, seller is ordering a replacement and having it shipped to me. There is a slight gap at the rear fascia the passenger side quarter panel. Normal paint chips... needs a detail to remove light swirls.

Ummmm lets see, it has a bar going across the width behind the seats, so I'm assuming that was installed for harnesses, maybe the car was tracked.Car has some paint film installed, needs removal and replaced.

Overall I'm still extremely happy with the car. Made some good pulls on the way home to "clean" it out - wowza! Especially when the butterfly valves open!
Love how quiet it can be, then how MEAN it can sound also.

Hopefully get some AMSOIL ordered soon for engine oil, trans fluid, and differential. Always like having new fluids for peace of mind.

The slight squeal from the CCB's is a tad annoying, but ya know what? I don't care!

I'll deal with it gladly!
