I have been "shopping" for a 2016-2017 Z06 for over a month. I found a few out there, but I really wanted to get the "right" color, right "deal" or the right options. To make a long story short. I wanted a 2017 z07 package 3LZ and my goal was to find one with low mileage for 70k.... I found many for around 75 but never really loved the color.
A few days ago someone posted a carbon 65 for sale in the forum and it really grabbed my attention. I found a Convertible carbon 65 - no z07 package for 88K (160 miles) - today I made an offer and they took it.... In all honestly I was not expecting them to take the offer - the MSRP is 111 and the offer was for 82.
So I guess my question is : Is this a decent deal? I am not going to getting the z07 package which I know it adds value - and I am getting. convertible which I was not planning on getting... Maybe I should have done more research, but for those who own a a convertible do you have any feedback? For those who have the carbon 65 without the z07 package is the vehicle still 'worth it" and is this a decent deal or could I have done better?
I think you made great deal for Carbon 65 vert Z06 with only 160 miles on it. I honestly think you found a really motivated seller. I've been looking for the same car but with the M7. It seems to be a "unicorn" because I have not had much luck.

I think it's a great deal. As for it not being a Z07, outside of the Carbon Ceramic brakes and the tighter suspension, you can easily add the Stage 3 aero to give it the look of the Z07 package.
Great point! I’m going to do some research and where to find the stage 3 parts

Thanks man! Did you get the convertible? How do you like it? How do you like the color? I know people have mixed feelings towards that
I got the Coupe and yes I love the color. Just entered my car in the Sam Houston Corvette Show and picked up 3 awards. One of the awards was a prominent Corvette shop's Corvette pick of the entire show (about 120-140 Corvettes entered).
I agree some don't like the color, but I've got it all arranged so they 'aint 'payin the note either! lol I love it and apparently plenty of folks at the car show did too!
Nice! I wanted to get a coupe but I only found one with a few thousand miles and 4-5k more. I figured with only 17 z06 convertible carbon 65 this could be a better buy! I hope the top grows on me. If not top down all day.... after all I’m in Cali

Decent deal? Carbon 65 - convertible?
