Nice looking car and good luck with it, I would have smacked the salesmen for letting them put advertising on your car

Proper specs. Very nice! Feel free to check out the mods on my car, namely the DSC, as you decide to start modding yours.

Best,
Gene

I knew at some point Id eventually upgrade my Z to a newer one.

Anyway the stars finally aligned for the new Z when I came across this one in its third year in production.

The very last weekend in April, me and my best bud loaded up the ole Lingenfelter C6Z and headed from NY to SC with her riding on the trailer following us. We had a blast of a trip and was able to visit my sister who lives in NC on the way home.

moving on...

This car was dealer ordered and was just the way I would've ordered it with the exception of 1 thing, and that was it would've had the comp seats...really sucks this one didn't have them...

I have to admit it was hard letting my C6Z (Lingenfelter 660) go as that car was plenty fast, raw and never had an issue. I have no doubt it was faster than the new Z (straight line of course) but I'm sure eventually Ill mod this 1 although I'm telling myself Ill hold out as long as possible.

This is my 5th Z06 and I'm hoping this one will bring as much headache free pleasure as the others did. As many of you know I also had a 2011 ZR1 which was an awesome car.

When I got back to NY, she was taken straight to my buds garage for a full detail and expel. She sat there until today. Today she finally made it home.

So without further ado

2017 ZO6/ZO7 3LZ M7
The color combo is bad *** brother. You can do the competition seat back conversion if you really want the comp seats.

I didn't read everything here but, you should look at the cool comp aftermarket seats someone on Z06 forums just bought...should be on this page or back one. Incredible!

I have been writing off getting a black Z because black is so hard to maintain, but damn that looks nice.

I was very impressed with the dealer. They were extremely kind/courteous and helpful. Highly recommended.

Not to mention got a great deal.

hey Boba,


Congratulations on your beautiful car! Imagine my surprise when I was reading your post and I was like "Wait a minute....that looks a lot like mine!!" Very good choice


Yup, I attended the 1st one they had in the Spring and although they have another one this weekend, I'll be going to the show in Florham Park, NJ instead. There are so many shows and events each single week going straight into October, so I'm sure we'll run into each other at some point. Congrats again on your new ride and hope we can get a side by side picture of these weekends!

Awesome looking Z06 love the color combo. I am on my 7th Corvette and my 2017 Z06 is by far the best! Enjoy

Didn't see an interior shot but guessing you got the comp seats with the yellow stitching?
