Default My new to me 2017 Z06 2LZ

Just wanted to show a pic of my new to me Z06 I picked up this past Saturday from a local Chevy dealership.

This is my third Corvette and I am very excited to start putting some miles on it and making new memories!

I'll return the compliment! Very nice ride, congratulations. I hope the weather in St. Louis is better than here. I have not been able to drive my Vette since I picked it up on Friday.

Thank you!

Weather has been on the hotter side but it's the midwest lol

Looking forward to our first cruise this Sunday!!

Hope your weather turns around so you can get out and put some seat time in!!

Wanted to share an update, finally got out with the car for our first extended drive/cruise.

Had a chance to go on a spirited car cruise yesterday with some friends, we did a little back road carving and the car drove amazing!

I watched the coolant temps as it was 100 degrees here in the St. Louis area, everything seemed to be right on point running consistently between 192 - 205 depending on whether I was getting after it or just cruising or doing light throttle spurts.

Tires are pretty noisy on certain road surfaces but nothing I can't live with just felt it was worth sharing. I would think I will get a couple years out of the factory Michelin's and will likely look at something only after these wear out.

The ride was about an hour and a half, wife and I had a blast! We are loving the car and are ready for this weekends cars and coffee!!

Thank you!

I did a fair amount of mods to my last two vettes, planning on a BMS air filter and a Borla X pipe is about it for this one.
