I like the cleaner look of Stage 1!


I ordered a stage one because of this and also I did not like stepping over the side splitters.

Those with a Stage 3 aero kit and those who have a stage 1 kit that everyone mistakes for a standard C7.




ETA: Stage 2 is still cool in my book

PeterMJ...is that you?

Interesting thread considering the OP's car is a base/stage 1 aero car with ACS front splitter and side skirts. Those parts are far cheaper than from GM and his car isn't a Z07.

My ++ options? Lol, I was simply stating that whatever one has, no one should think theirs is better than anyone else's. I also didn't want the OP to say something stupid like" the only reason I commented is because I couldn't afford a 2 or 3lz" As far as you being a chick, I don't know. I've never seen you.

Default I was not going to post but .....

I like my C7/Z06 like this:

* Stage "0" front.

IMO makes the car look more muscular/leaner & business like (i.e. no bs). And I can get it into my driveway.

* Stage 2 side.

Does add a little something but installed for protection.

* Stage 1 rear.

Can see out back better and won't slow me down at 150 plus.







But this is how they should all look!!

Arrrr, back in my day we hads to spend five years on VetteNet ListServ listing to Hib sell Redline Oil before the Web was even invented, and now you want 34-posters setting the stage?

I don't care. I have Stage 3. Well, 2.5. So I'm down with the coolness.

Love that top-fuel pro-mod looking rendering. Someone needs to build that!

OP/Stripeknight,

You still haven't posted a photo of your C7 Z06 .....................

Just a stock photo.

????????????

On here you claim you have a stock Z06 you got for about $84K.

On another forum (AR15.COM) you state the following:
- Question: What are you driving now?
- Stripeknights reply: Well, I haven't sold the Z07 equipped Z06 yet, I've just "considered it".
(AR15.COM thread: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/182...__.html&page=1)

I will stay with my "inadequate" stage 1. I did notice yesterday while at a local dealership, besides the C7.R they had covered, all 7 of the Z06 models on the showroom came with the 07 package. While I prefer the look of the stage 1 setup, it would appear that many buying off the showroom floor may not have much of a choice these days.

I see the "now leasing" sign. Hmmm, wonder what the money factor and residual for that car is.
