C7 Z06 Convertible
Well I dont know that many people even care about these posts, or remember what they read the next day! Maybe someone will come kill some of their valuable time to read a new thread. Not sure that i would honestly leave the pages of real information to come read a boring newbie post....So ill keep it short and sweet
Owned an 88, and a 90 back in 2000. wrecked the 90 at a measly 40mph and seen the frame fracture in about 100 places. said Ill never own another vette. And then the C7 came out, and so for the last 2 years or so I have been watching youtube videos, observing forum posts forums, and become somewhat obsessed with getting a new vette. Tried a loan a few weeks ago and got shot down, said ill have to wait till next year. Last friday came home and said to myself maybe I should just pass on z06 and go for a grandsport. For the first time I actually LOOKED at the grand sport pricing and heck it wasnt a lot better than the Z06.
SO I found a 17 convertible with 2800 miles on it for $67500, applied for the loan friday at 530pm, got approved sat at 10am.....Yeah so that was fast and actually a little unexpected....So im here, probably hang out with you guys once in a while. Just ordered Corsa extreme exhaust and double helix, stage 2 and 3 spoiler/wickerbill. new Z06 car cover. Probably join a northern california car club.
Yeah so that it....thanks for viewing, see ya in the C7 Z06 forums.....

For my last few vehicles I have searched many different sites looking for deals, I was even on here looking for a vette. But to be perfectly honest the best deals I have seen, and this is just my experience, is on Cargurus.com. There is many Z06s with light miles that come in in the the low 70k,s.....Goodluck
