Almost bought a C6Z
Almost pulley the trigger for a trade for a 2006 ZO6 with 12k miles and was Daytona orange. Just couldn't make myself do it even though I miss my 2005 vette. Think I just need to supercharge my ride and call it a day. Maybe someday I'll just add one to the stables.

Im glad you didnt do it, arent those the early ls7s that dropped valves and had catastrophic engine failure?

They had problems with the brass valve guides causing then to drop a valve. This had all the head work done so that was not an issue

I can't say I regret getting rid of my 08 Vette, but I sure do miss it. Hoping to get a 15 C7 next year if I can hold out that long. What made you choose to stay with the tank?

the only thing made me think twice is going from a 2012 car I bought new to a car 6 years older but I do not know how long I can resist the urge. Ive always wanted a Z and the prices are right for them now.

Love that color! Must need sunglasses to look at it on a sunny day! Been drooling over the Stingray, and now I gotta see the new Z06, what a beast of a machine.
