I (sadly) no longer have this, but it had Kooks headers, retained catalytic converters, not sure on the x-pipe, and then the back exhaust was stock.

Last I saw of it, the car was for sale in...

They seem to at least be holding, price wise. So as far as any car goes, they’re doing very well.

I don’t think they’ll jump in value any time soon, so maybe they’re not an investment short term....

Yeah that looks fantastic. Big fan of the color and I’d leave the Z/28 trim black as well, damn nice.

Sounds like a worthwhile addition. Having said that - am I the only one that thinks the stock gas pedal is too narrow for good heel-and-toe pedal work?

Zslash28 keeps the registry. Buy his stats, you had 509 cars produced in 2014, then there were 4 CTF cars for 2015.

So
1172
+509
+ 4

So that should mean yours is #1685, if my math checks...

Now that you mention it.. the right rear looks like it’s on some serious positive camber setting that probably isn’t intentional. Makes sense now.

Okay... so math isn’t my strong suit, but 509 cars produced in 2014, and the 2015 I’m driving has a F9700037 VIN.. so that makes it the 546th Z. That’d make a good license plate :nod:
