Default New to Z06

Not new to Corvette but new to Z06. I traded in my 2023 70th anniversary edition C8 yesterday for this 2024 Z06 3LZ. Found it on the lot at a local dealer that placed the order for someone but couldn't secure all of the loan for it. I actually have an Eray in the order bank with another dealer since september but hasn't even been accepted by GM yet. Loving it so far with only 40 miles on it.

Congrats! I just did the same thing, 2022 Stingray traded for a 2024 Z06. Haven’t driven it yet but certainly looking forward to it. Liking yours, first impressions?

I have only driven it home from the dealer 33 miles. It's a beast!!! I love the sound of it. When it starts it shakes my entire garage, I keep the garage doors down when starting it so my neighbors will still like me. Love it so far.

Had mine 2 weeks and have 700 miles. Much different car than stingray. Car is a blast to drive with all the power above 3k. Car does not like to be driven slow. For NY roads the suspension is a little too stiff. Does not seem so stiff with top down. I don’t know why that is. The car is scary fast on the top end. Respect the speed. It goes from 60 to 120 very fast. Enjoy. Once I get my wheel issue sorted out should be good to go.

Congrats, nice color! I traded my 70th for my Z (ordered) the very end of last year. It's everything I was hoping it would be.
