Default (FS): Corvette C6 | ZR1 Style | LSX 454 Motor | Tastefully Modified, Lemans Blue

CAR IS SOLD!!!!

(FS) 2007 Corvette C6 | ZR1 Style | LSX 454 Motor | Tastefully Modified, Lemans Blue [CA]

It is time to sell my 2007 Corvette C6. This corvette is truly, seriously, highly and tastefully modified. Between the built LSX 454 motor, ZR1 body kit, CCW SP551s, rare Lemans Blue color, the car just screams aggressive in looks. It’s backed up with a carefully custom built, forged motor, sporting an LSX Block and 454 ci of raw American power. The car gets plenty of attention and has been featured on most of the major car pages many times (High Tech Corvette, Mexico Racing League, LS Nation, Car Throttle).

I’m only selling because I’m ready to buy a house and this will help with the down payment. There are no issues with the car, and I’m still driving it while this ad is up. I would not hesitate to drive this car across the country.

The engine was built by Kohle @ American Heritage Performance (AHP). For those of you with LS7s, you know the amazing work he does on LS7 heads. And, for those of you in SoCal, you know he’s one of the best LSX shops around. AHP is truly a LSX genius. AHP did all the machine work in house, and I will include the build sheet with the sale. He did an absolutely amazing job. I also had him do a once over on the car to make sure everything was good - and it was. We replaced a couple maintenance items (see fluids and maintenance parts section), but everything else was perfect. I have 3,500 miles on the built motor already, and haven’t had a single issue. No burning oil, no knocks, no lost compression, no smoke, nothing. The motor was built perfectly.

On the dyno, this made 588 WHP and 524 WTQ. There are some limiting factors on the car that I simply ran out of money on. If you replace the 1 ¾” B&B headers with 2” headers, and add an E85 sensor, this will be well into the 600 WHP all motor.

If you’re feeling crazy, the build can handle up to a 300 shot of nitrous according to the machine shop, American Heritage Performance. I’ve never ran nitrous on it, but this would be a monster with it.

The car was recently paint corrected and 2-year ceramic coated (G-techniq) by an amazing detailer – Properly Detailed. I cannot emphasize how amazing it looks in person. There are no imperfections, and the ceramic coating will keep the car looking great for years to come.

2007 Corvette C6
63,1XX miles on the chassis/odometer and about 3,500 miles on the LSX 454 motor

The car has NEVER been in an accident, NEVER been tracked in any form other than roll racing in a ½ mile (very easy on the cars, no hard launches), has a CLEAN TITLE and a clean CARFAX. This car is being sold AS-IS without any warranty of any kind, express or implied.

Price: SOLD!

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Previous Owners:
I am the third owner of this beautiful machine. The first owner was in Houston, Texas and only used the car for a couple road trips with his wife. He was the one that had the rear Z06 wide body kit installed as well as the CCW SP551 wheels. The second owner, Sonny, had this car in St. Louis and only put about 7,000 miles on it since he bought it. I am a car and corvette enthusiast that spent 6 months finding the right car to purchase. I picked this up from Sonny who took perfect care of this car and could not have been happier with the purchase. The car had an LS2 in it at the time of purchase.

BTR Stage 4.5 Camshaft? How aggressive is it?
This Corvette does a very aggressive cam, but Tom the Tuner @ Izzy’s Performance does phenomenal work making this car drive very tame for what it is. It is very drivable, whether cruising on the highway, sitting in traffic, or tracking it if that’s your thing. I still get more than 25 MPG while cruising in 6th gear. If you want a completely stock car, then you need to keep looking. If you want a cam that performs, and yet still drives relatively amazingly, then give me a call.

Title and Payment:
This Corvette has a clean Texas title. The car is PAID OFF and does not have any liens. I have the title in hand. I will not release the title or the car until the funds are 100% cleared. If you are paying cash, it must be a wire transfer or a certified check. If you are financing through a bank, it must be a reputable bank or credit union and the funds will need to be clear before I release the title. I do not provide financing options. But, I can and will work with you if you need to finance the car through a bank. You just need to remember this takes time.

MAINTENANCE INFORMATION:
Fluids & Maintenance Parts:
This car has been meticulously taken care of throughout its whole life. I really strive for perfection. The fluids are changed at less than half of the recommended maintenance periods. Oil is changed every 2k miles, transmission and diff every 10k miles, clutch fluid every tank fill up. Many of the maintenance parts were replaced during the engine build – including motor mounts, alternator, starter, belt tensioner, hood struts, spark plug wires, power steering pump. Trust me when I say this, you do not need to do anything to the car other than take it home and enjoy it.

Paint Condition:
The front ZR1 clip was professional painted by Oscar and Sons in Santa Ana, CA. They did a phenomenal job color matching the front to the existing rear. The Lemans Blue looks amazing. The car was recently paint corrected and ceramic coated by Properly Detailed. It has a 2-year coating that will protect this paint. I use a touch-less washing method to prevent swirls and scratches. There are a couple minor exterior issues as you can see in the pictures in this ad, but that is to be expected of any car this age. Overall, it’s in amazing condition.

Alignment, Brakes and Rotors, Tires:
The car was aligned immediately after the LSX 454 motor was installed earlier this year. The front brakes and rotors have plenty of life – both were replaced during the engine build. The front tires are relatively new, with about 4,000 miles on them. The rear R888 are probably about ¾ the way through their life.

CONCLUSION AND CONTACT INFORMATION:
I have no doubt that the next owner will enjoy this blue beast as much as I did and the previous two owners have. I hope that I’ve answered most of your questions and that you’re ready to buy this car. But, should you have any more questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thanks for looking!
