Hi everyone, my name is Richard and next weekend I'm gonna be taking a trip to dallas to pick up an 03 z06 (Silver w/ red and black interior). Im tired of my Supra and want a nice change lol. Before I pick the car up I was wondering what common mechanical problems these cars have. Ex. overheating due to poor radiator design, headgasket issues? Thanks in advance for the help and I enjoy browsing this forum
