Default I finally got the car I’ve been wanting for years!

My love for Vettes is especially strong with C5Z’s. Last weekend I picked up the one I’ve been waiting for since as long as I can remember. A 1-owner totally stock 2001 Z06 in Speedway White with Torch Red interior! As soon as I came across this car I jumped on it and planned a 16 hour round trip to pick it up. I’m now the owner of 2 C5Z’s. I have 1 to drive, my 02 w/Vengeance Rancing’s Stage 5 upgrade package (600hp!) and 1 to preserve, my 01 SW! I’ll post more pics when I get more!


And my 02Z

I agree! After I sold my first 1, I regretted it. Going to hold onto these for awhile, they’re both amazing in their own ways.

My favorite 2 colors on the C5Z, black and white. I don't understand why they didn't offer white on the 02-04? If they would have I might be driving a white one instead of my current black 02Z. The black and red interior is also my favorite and you've got all 3!

Nice congrats!!! Question on the red Z. Are they Z06 oem Wheels. If they are or not what size wheel and width and tire you running on there? Thanks.
