Not an expert on Z06 - so others may know more specifics: A small, low volume dealer may not have an allocation. If the dealer DOES have an allocation, given the fact that Z06s are not quite the "hot commodity" they were initially, I'd guess you would be looking at 4 - 6 weeks. In Fall of 2006, I ordered a 2007 Coupe ( not a Z06 ) from a very high volume Corvette Dealer and it arrived in exactly 5 weeks. YMMV. Good luck! - Ray

Replying to: kgabehurt (Jan 22, 2008 9:32 pm) their orders before release of the car waited for two years to get delivery at MSRP. Then again, the ZR1 has just been announced and that is going to put some what of a damper on it's lesser cousins. The notes above about dealers having allocations is key, if they won't show you what their allocation is and can explain it simply, they probably just don't know enough to get you what you want.

Up at Road America last weekend for a driving school and had the "blessing" of riding in above. Observation: INSANE, OBSCENE....what else to say...., INCREDIBLE!!!I I've attended schools for 11-12 years, driving Supra TT's, '01 Z06 and '03 Z06 and now an '08 coupe. Anyway, I met this fellow a number of years ago when he drove a Zanardi NSX. He is an instructor and drives his cars extremely well. He traded his Zanardi for a Stradale maybe 2 years ago and he gave me a ride in that...WOW! He sold the Stradale a couple months ago and was really in the hunt for a GT3; even went to look at a couple of them but they were disappointing to him so he gravitated to the Z06. Bought it Wednesday night, left Friday a.m. with 80 miles on the clock and drove up to RA. He is TOTALLY impressed with the Z06. I wanted a ride and got it. I just can't fathom the difference between my '03 w/ 405 ponies and his w/ 505. Sure, I expected more grunt and I knew the brakes were much improved w/ 6/4 pistons but damn, the car was so well balanced, all I could do was giggle and smile. He didn't even have time to change brake fluid nor upgrade pads so it was bone stock. All weekend, no fade, and no spongy pedal. I knew I'd be impressed but had no idea as to how much I would be impressed. Truly, the ride of my life.

Replying to: gbjerke (May 03, 2008 3:10 pm) of exercise at Spring Mt. MSP in Pahrump, NV last fall. Had two students, one a GM exec and the other a guy my age from So. Calif., leading edge baby boomer. The car is amazing but for one's first track toy it is too fast to learn in. Both of them had to spin out once before they started to listen about going in slow and exiting fast, learning the line and 'building' speed. And the spins came with the Active Handling system working, you really have to screw up to accomplish that! No harm and no foul as all ended well and they pretty much both improved greatly over the weekend. The car is obscenely fast. Randy

New 2008 Z06; 200 miles; driven respectful of the cars newness. After the initial heat expansion; the resin smell inside the car made my daughter sick, another 60 miles and we are understanding styrene off-gassing from the SMC panels inside the car is a serious health issue. Sad to say this can last days to years; depending on ambient temp. and such. Has anyone else experienced this to a unacceptable degree? Bought my first vette in 85; last one-91-ZR-1. No previous odor. This issue has been discussed on the Corvette forum. Please respond to this issue. Thanks
