Default Some questions before I order a 2016 Z:

It's been a long wait, but we're finally ready to order. There are 3 things I need to clarify before we order:

1. For around $100 there is an emblem package available in carbon flash. Do the standard emblems simply come in black?
2. Someone please show me a pic of the standard wheel centercap. There are a few options available for $200, but the standard might suit me just as well.
3. Does the car come w/o any floormats at all? Any pix of the optional ZO6 logo mats? I'm assuming that the color "galvanized" means there will match the carpet color.
Thanks in advance for the help.

My thoughts are you should think this out just a bit longer and very carefully when. Congrats on getting the go ahead.

The standard on the Z06 is carbon flash

2. Someone please show me a pic of the standard wheel centercap. There are a few options available for $200, but the standard might suit me just as well.

The standard centercap is the corvette flags emblem

3. Does the car come w/o any floormats at all? Any pix of the optional ZO6 logo mats? I'm assuming that the color "galvanized" means there will match the carpet color.

Yes floor mats; very much like the carpet...no logo.
Buy aftermarket Lloyd mats...exceptional with many logos.

Thanks in advance for the help.

see above

Your response to #1 and #2 is why I'm confused. The Chevy build site for the Z offers carbon flash emblems for $135 and crossed flag centercaps for $200. The Lloyds advise is good.

Also if your looking at the 2015 model build there will likely be changes for 2016.

Go to Rick Conti's page and scroll down on left side. There is a place for info on 16 changes he has deduced.

If you look, you are probably on the accessories tab of the order page. On this tab, you can order almost anything GM Accessories makes for the C7, whether it is already on the car or not. Since these parts don't come from the factory, they are shipped separately to the dealer and installed there.

With regard to Carbon Flash emblems, as mentioned, they are standard on a Z06. There are chrome emblems available for the Z for $100 under the options. If you try to build a regular C7, you get chrome standard, and can get Carbon Flash for $100. This is the standard on Zs.





The only advantage to ordering them with the car is to roll the price of the accessories into your payment, or if you want the dealer to install it. Otherwise, you can usually order these parts at a substantial discount from any of the GM parts vendors here on the forum.
