Here's another... as far as Z06 reliability, on another forum, a guy who runs at these tracks regularly said they just replaced a series of Z06 that run redline racing daily with nearly 100K miles EACH... Man, I can't wait to get my baby!!!

Great choice of color! I loved the Z06 until I drove the ZR1 for 3 days. It's big improvement over the z06. I was looking at the z06 and is-f as one of my next choice of car. However plans have changed!! Anyway have fun with the ride and make sure you join the corvetteforum.

You picked a great car for performance and reliability. So don't even question it.

If you decide to go to a driving school, goto www.springmountainmotorsports.com and tell Donna that Rogan recommended you!

Nice choice man, good luck with your new ride!!! Recently when I was in Texas I saw a red Z06 with the inside of the headlights with a carbon fiber finish on the inside as opposed to the body color. I thought it looked very well since im not a fan of the new vettes with the key colored headlights (especially on a white car)!! Just thought I put it out there!!
