You never loose the fever and today I have a C6 convertable and love it. You have just sold me on my next one thats for sure. I can't wait for that day in the future.

Depends on driving habits and city or highway. I drive 75% highway and I'd say I'm in the 16-18 range. When I do longer highway trips I can hit 21 in eco mode. Ironically I think the 7th gear is a bit worse in a 60-70mph highway stretch since you need to use enough gas to maintain that it never drops into V4 mode, on 6th it will a lot more. Can't complain since I didn't expect a V8 sports car to be easy on the gas anyways.

WOW! Very similar to my situation. What's funny like you I had a 370Z (Sports/Touring) before I bought my 2016 Z06 (2LZ). This wasn't my daily driver though. My car was a factory order and I also had PPF film in all of the front and hood and other places plus ceramic coating applied to the rest of the car. I also had Forgeline VX-1 wheels including many additional mods and carbon fiber upgrades. I kept the car for 5.5 years and sold it less than a year ago prior to my retirement at 62. I couldn't resist selling considering how high the used car prices were and I just wasn't driving it much. It was a beautiful car and a joy to drive. Congrats on being able to have this car at such a young age. I don't regret selling it but do miss driving it with the top off. I actually like the looks of mine better than the new C8's. I never had very many problems with mine besides routine maintenance. The side of my driver's side seat would always wear out. The Leather seats were very thin and not very good quality. One seat cover replaced under warranty. My gas tank cover also broke and could be opened but replaced under warranty. They also had to do numerous software updates to my entertainment system due to bugs and issues.

Guys, if you track your car, if you track your bike, YOU MUST CHANGE ALL THE FLUIDS TO a "TRACK" ready status. That means the BREAK PADS should be track performing pads, like Eagle Claws. The rotors can't be your basic rotors. Drill holes are needed for the rotors. You MUST change the transmission fluid, the break fluid AND the radiator fluid, to a high quality fluid that's designed for the track. If you track your car on stock parts, you'll get a stock performance and a disaster waiting to happen. That includes all racing bikes, from the 600s to the 1250s. Suspension, the dap, break fluids, tires, break pads, oil, CAN'T BE STOCK.

@killian7498 Жыл бұрын
@@crointhevette Waow that is a very good question. So, I owned both in manual transmission. Let me first tell you, the ZL1 1LE manual transmission is one of the best you could possibly get on the market (stock car). I really precise, easy to put in gear, no grinding not a lot of strength to go from 1st to 2nd gear, and really well made. The C7 Z manual transmission is fine, but definitely not on the ZLE level. Now let's talk about handling. I never thought I would say that, but the ZL1 1LE gives you way more confidence (hot tires + warm weather) than the C7Z, especially on tight turns. The car is really well balanced and has an insane amount of grip (I had Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on both car so I can really compare). You can get big lateral G force with the ZLE, and it feels more planted than the C7Z. And don't get me wrong, the C7 Z06 is a very capable car, but the ZL1 1LE just feel more of a track/race car, it's more planted and less viscious than the Z06 (like if the Z06 had too much power/torque to really enjoy the car to its fullest). In term of inside the cabin, I can't make a choice, I like both. In terms of sound (both stock cars) I prefer the C7Z because the exhaust is closer to my ears, and I can hear it better even windows closed. Finally, after saying all good for the ZLE, I can definitely say that I would like to sell it now, and buy a C7Z 7-speed again. Why ? Just because I absolutely love the aesthetic of the car. It's such a beautiful SuperCar (yes it is one, seeing time on track it definitely is). The ZLE, even if it also makes Supercar time on the Nurburghring, it still a Camaro at the end of the day, even with all the extremely agressive front end, and nasty carbon fiber spoiler at the back. So yes I would like to own a C7 Z06 again just because I don't track my personnal cars, I am a big fan of the C7 looks, exhaust note/sound, and the possibility to remove the top whenever there it's sunny.

I easily get 17-18 mpg mixed, with speed bursts time to time....don't know how u need to drive to get 14pmg on the Vette. Gearing are made the way so u can get really good mileage.

Shifting is interesting.....why do you shift into each gear?you can easily start shifting 1-3-6 gears or something like that. Car has so much power/torque that u can easily skip gears

I found the perfect one colors interior and exterior and M7 and Z07 package with exact packages I want but it’s 100k. With just a couple thousand miles on it. It’s a tough pill to swallow paying almost sticker price on the car from 2017 in 2023. It’s literally the exact specs I would have bought though in 2017. Think I should go for it or wait and hope prices fall on these?
@crointhevette Жыл бұрын
Damn that’s a tough call. Personally $100k is too much, I think over time prices will definitely come down, better wait for it to drop, it’ll be had for $80k down the road.

Do you feel they are worth more today than when brand new back in 2015 or whenever? Because that is what the used market wants. If you take mileage and owner beatings into account, used car dealers are selling these for basically $100,000 today. IF it is true, it is, but that's just a truckload of trust to put into Chevrolet, who can let you down in the service category. For example, they won't sell me a new seat, or even any seat part (leather, frames), for my C6 Z06. That tightens my anal sphincter pretty hard when thinking about adding another Corvette to my driveway. Thanks.
@crointhevette Жыл бұрын
Yes and no. I would say If you can snag a low mileage 3LZ for under 70-75, then yes it’s absolutely worth it. I’ve seen some Z06s with 25-30k miles and multiple owners go for 80K+ and that’s not worth it (in my opinion). A low mileage C7 Z06 for 75k is a much better bargain than the C8 used market which is easily over 100k.
@roostafish961 Жыл бұрын
This happens as any car ages. Face it, a C6 is now an old car. If you take a dirt bike in to have service done and it’s more than 10 years old, they will tell you to leave. Seats can be redone. Brackets can be welded or even made from scratch. At least a Corvette is simple enough that anyone can work on it. Try getting a 2008 Mercedes SL AMG with all the funky air suspension and the three way Variable Valve Timing. Heck, you can’t even check the oil on that car.

He must have his foot on the gas all of the time to only get 14 mgp. I also have a C7 ZO6 and in mixed city/highway driving I average 22.5 mpg. In pure freeway driving, using Econo mode, I get 31 mpg.

Be careful of the eco mode, the cylinder deactivation can cause major problems according to a lot of users on the forums.
