New Z06 in the garage

First Vette!

2017 Z06 A8 3LZ with carbon ground effects, carbon spoiler, carbon dash, comp. seats, red belts and stitching, and CCB.

First order of business is exhaust! "Wimpy" is how the wife described it!

LOVE the Akrapovic exhaust note but I'd rather spend $5k on wheels rather than a muffler.

Did you set the exhaust to Track? might want to try that before replacing it.

Already pulled the fuse, LOL.

Corsa X pipe on order. I'll start there.

Coming from a GT500 with no cats and louder mufflers.

Beautiful car. What year was your GT500? I owned a 2012 for three years. Kind of regret selling it. I went with a Borla S-Type Axle Back system with the black ceramic tips on my Stingray. Love the look and sound. Not too loud unless you get on it.
