I remember when you sold the c8. I know it was tough for you but it was definitely the right move for the moment.

I hope so. Still waiting for the right opportunity to replace it. I'm thankful that a kind friend let me drive this Z06. Great experience!

You can remove the top of the front center grill surround. Looks more aggressive. I believe that is for track use to improve flow through the radiators.

Thanks, Larry. Glad to see some familiar names in the comments. Unfortunately, I do not have a Z06 on order due to the price. I am watching Stingray values closely though.

I remember watching your C8 videos and helping me decide on my spec. Now I have a 2023 C8 and love driving it. I may order a Z06 in the future but in that price range, may venture into other exotics.

You can get one to with a 2-3 year waiting period and a $50k bump over MSRP. 😢 Iremember the days when I went bought my 16’ C7 Z06. Called dealer. Negotiated pro price. Picked up car. Good old days. Do love the the car new Z06 though.

The Z06 looked very menacing at 8:01, I got to be honest, that was a sexy image, from the side angle of the C8 Z06.😍😍
@newdaysamepains Жыл бұрын
Never been a real fan of the styling, its too much. The 458 had a very timeless and clean design, one of my favorites. I guess we are limited by NA styling. However unlike most people I am excited that GM released the z06. I hope more people buy it so it becomes more common so parts become available later. Hopefully its half reliable, I love the performance, I love the sound, interior is nice and those are the only 4 things I care about. Maybe this is because I have not been in many super cars, the Z06 is a tiny car which is a good thing in my book but I was surprised at how small it was inside and out.

And since GM can barely get any of these built these Z06’s will be just as unique on the road as the standard supercar. These will be very rare to see on the road in 2023….

Robert, thanks for this Z06 preview. Hope you don't have to wait too much longer. Would you, by the way, recommend another Chevy Dealer or private garage in our area that does C6 Z06 repairs ? I am not reading good reviews about the dealership that took over Bradshaw's in Greer. Thanks 👍

I have a Torch Red 2022 now. I have in person seen 5 different Z06s here in Scottsdale over the past few months. They look the same a standard C8 to the untrained eye. Same headlights, taillights etc. That disappointed me! But I have yet to hear any of the cars engines. Hopefully once I hear the car run my heart will change....

We all know the topend is far beyond a C8 but how does the lowend and midrange compare? different in sound ,of course, but torque wise, is the C8 stronger on the bottom or is this Still stronger, everywhere?

Just does not seem worth $160,000 and the depreciation could prove massive as they will build tens of thousands of this z06. Porsche builds 5,000 of all 911 variants. Identical interior and electronics and essentially same suspension too.
