Replying to: xkss (Aug 26, 2005 11:08 pm)  116.6 with a 0-60 in 4.2 seconds. Then in the middle of the magazine you see Chevy's insert 11.7125 with a 0-60 of 3.7 sec. R&T goes on to say that it is slower than a Viper and FEELS slower as well. Hard to belive the figures could be so off. I know Chevy is VERY agressive with their figures but this gap is unreal!!!

Replying to: iturk (Sep 05, 2005 7:32 am) 0-60 in 3.5 1/4 mile 11.5 127.1 So did Car and Driver and right now I can't find it (wife must be reading it--LOL). Anyway, they turned similar #'s as I recall. |

Well the big mags have there say on straight line but here is some road course info: http://www.autoweek.com/article.cms?articleId=103066 Knowing how hard it is to learn a 2.2 to 3 mile track I really can't imagine the Ring! Randy |

| It's under the passenger side fuel rail cover towards the back/windshield... so you have to remove the red fuel rail cover to see it. | |
Well, I got no call on the raffle at the Museum, so I guess I got stiffed again on the drawing for a C-6. Oh, well, maybe next time. Still time I think to get a ticket for the "build your own Z06" raffle, but the ticket cost is out of my budget--I think they are $500 each, but a very limited number being sold. Too much car for this old man anyway.

Replying to: typhon1991 (Sep 07, 2005 4:25 pm) Same with my '03. Bought in August '03 when the '04's were about to hit. However I bought for invoice less the rebate at the time. I wonder what the production numbers were for '01. Maybe you have that info. When I first heard of the content on the C6 Z I toyed with the idea of the "instant gratification" and there are several dealers out there selling for sticker so the temptation was there. However, I live in snow country so another couple months or so of driving and it will be put to bed for the winter. Just not worth it if one considers the potential deals out there next April/May.

Replying to: gbjerke (Sep 09, 2005 2:15 pm)  llocation is based on 2005 years sales. Chevy stated that there will be some certified Corvette dealers who won't get a single Z06. The difference between the 2001 and the 2006 is the 06's are sold before they get here, the 2001's weren't. Laws of Supply and demand. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens.

2001: 1YY07 Base Coupe $40,280 15,681 44% 1YY67 Base Convertible $46,805 14,173 40% 1YY37 Base Hardtop - Z06 Model $48,0555 5,773 16% Total: 35,627 100% 2003: 1YY07 Base Coupe $43,475 12,812 36% 1YY67 Base Convertible $50,375 14,022 40% 1YY37 Base Hardtop - Z06 Model $51,275 8,635 24% Includes Comm. Ed. Total: 35,469 100% 2004: 1YY07 Base Coupe $43,735 16,165 47% 1YY67 Base Convertible $50,735 12,216 36% 1YY37 Base Hardtop - Z06 Model $51,585 5,683 17% Total: 34,064 100% So, the 24% was very high, but the 2006 is filling new demand and so could exceed that. As noted, it will be interesting to watch. Not yet ready to pony up sticker, which I'm thinking with basic options and tax will be $75k+-.
