Just bought a Z06
Hi. I just bought an 07 Z06, 19000 miles and senior one owner. It’s in excellent condition, not a scratch. Even the front air dam isn’t scratched. Exterior is silver with black interior. Has virtually every option. Previous owner supplied build sheet, window sticker and a binder of service records. It’s a beauty.

Barely broken in.
All the options.
There is not one scratch or flaw on the Z, even the front air dam isn’t scratched.
I bought a 5 year, 75K mile all inclusive warranty from Infinity so I can sleep at night.
My only issue is that the engine hunts for a stable rpm and can fluctuate from 500 to 800 rpm. It only happens when first coming to a stop light. Once it hunts it stabilizes.
Im a firm believer in doing oil analysis’s at every other oil change and already sent a sample off. I have done this for years and on two occasions saved my engines from disaster, detecting trace amounts of antifreeze in the oil. Both cases I had an imminent breach in the head gasket. I do oil analysis on my airplane each oil change since mandated by the manufacturer. If good enough for it, it’s good enough for the Z06.
