And he'll be travelling back to the east coast in October, so will put another 6,000+ miles on it this fall.

I've only got 4,000 miles on my 2016 Z06

Hows it going Bob, yep turned 78,000 and runs perfect. Will be going to watch the Solar Eclipse in Casper Wyoming Aug 21st.

I have a 2015 Z06 with 42,359 miles on it. They are all very Happy Miles and Smiles.

10,250 here and wish I had more time to drive it. I drive 30K to 40K miles a year and every mile not in the Z06 is a huge disappointment.

Haha I wish then I could tune the damn thing!

I'm at 41k miles right now. If I was continually commuting into the NYC I would probably break 100k first. I was doing about 600 miles a week and picked the car up on the first day they were legally able to sell it. However I didn't commute in during the Summer and have stopped having to head in about a year ago. Since we have a two year old the car doesn't get a lot of miles these days. It's still my daily but most days don't get many miles other than once a week when I have to, unfortunately, head to Long Island. Sadly from here on out the miles will be put on rather slowly. Miles of smiles none the less.

Best,
Gene

I am at 27k miles but special consideration should go to guys like Gene and myself, being from the snow belt and all. My Z is a 2015 and when I tally up the riding time... I have put on that 27K miles in 15 months driving time.

About to turn 5700 miles soon on my '16. Took a nice 100 mile drive today. I only drive it on the weekends so i try to do at least 200 miles per weekend.

Wow, so that's Thomasmoto and Phantasms and repo_czar all at 41-42 K for the most right now? All very close!

Default I drive my C7.

Took delivery October 2013 of a beautiful blue LT3 and currently have covered 31800 + miles. No real problems and mainly use it for extended road trip vacations all over US. Surprised how many members of our club do not do much mileage with their cars. What are they saving them for? Purchased mine to drive. Incidentally, new front tires at 22,000 and new rears at 31,000.
