Default Upgraded my Stingray for a Z06

I am now part of the Z club . I couldn't say no to the huge discount and traded in my Stingray for a brand new '17 Z06/07 3LZ. Here are some pics of both

The Stingray is a great ride but a Z06 is a better ride! Great upgrade and welcome to the club! Nice looking AW Z06 Coupe!

Thanks for the info. I'm also considering a 2018/2019 Z06 as a trade-up from my early 2017 Z51 Stingray. Anyone on the board trade up from a Stingray to a Z06 and wish you could go back?

Thanks.

Z06 is simply an all around better car than any other Sting Ray model, period!
