New Z/28 Owner - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Raven87 · 10-25-2016, 09:42 AM

I just bought a new 2015 Z/28 and am bringing it home today; it only has 17 miles on it.

I'll post more once I get it home and in the garage. I traded in my C7 Coupe and am looking forward to getting to know the new monster.

IMO, both the C7 and the 6th gen, drive like a computer controlled car, where the Z/28 drives more like a race car, love the color, congrats and have fun.

Thanks for the great welcome! I bought the car from Bosak Chevy in NW Indiana - it is a new 2015 that had been sitting there since it came off the transporter and only had 17 miles on the odometer. My son and I drove the Vette over and drove the Z back last night and it was a thrilling drive which took about 3 hrs each way. I got over $25K off list price and a VERY fair trade value for my Vette so I am thrilled with the deal.

I can't say enough about how impressed I am with this car. It is just an amazing vehicle in every respect. We actually ran into some light showers leaving the dealership but had no issue with traction which was a big concern when the rain drops hit the windshield but thankfully those didn't last long and the road never really got soaked.

And, the temps dropped pretty quickly once the sun went down - I saw 36* when I dropped my son off at his house. No problem at all though with anything but of course I was being very careful with the throttle.

Here are a couple of pics from the adventure.

One at the dealership before we left there:

And finally home in my garage shortly after midnight - a little dirty but what a great drive! (And I will be changing my 'Corvette Parking Only' sign today to my 'Camaro Parking Only'!)
