I agree with C4/C5 specialist and Zippy--I 3rd the motion, but... the manufacturer is selling cars and anything else takes second place.

Sometime back I got stopped for no front plate, when I was living in Ohio. I had seen lots of cars without, so I took mine off, but in retrospect, they may have been passing through from neighboring states. I got a ticket, which the judge upheld, even though the copcar had no front plate...

No problem dude. Truth is, after I have had the car longer, I have relaxed a bit more about the inevitable changes. And, like I mentioned in a follow-up post, it turned out there wasn't any damage. I met a guy who saw my car out in the lot at a car parts store and he told me he had a 2002...

Too cool! That will be a great looking car. I really want to see one next to my DSOM... If yyou are passing near Paducah (western Kentucky) let me know and we could get some pics. Just make sure your wife knows about the break-in period. She isn't allowed to use full throttle or high RPMs...

Hey, Norseman, that is a pretty know-it-all attitude for someone who wasn't there and apparently didn't even read my initial post. Let me clarify, both for you and for some other commenters: First, I was appropriately parked, in my reserved spot. Second, IT WAS NOT GRASS OR A LAWNMOWER--it was...

Hey, send them my way--I must be in a pretty quiet town, because I have had my Z for almost nine months now and no real races, My license plate is 1A RACE (as in "Wanna race?"), but I think most people are scared off. Some local guys are planning to rent a small airport out of town next month...

Great article, and the best pics I've seen of the LS7. Thanks, Rob!

I agree completely with you Zippy-- Well, except about not buying orange (I love my DSOM!) And about not buying black (I loved my black 2002 and almost got the new one in black!) Otherwise most everything made sense (except your spelling of cents). Oh, and one more thing--you said you would...

Great link, Rob! The stats are interesting. I'm surprised to see that my option choices are most all in the low percentages--maybe my car is one of a kind--though I don't think that makes it any more valuable. I didn't know there were choices for rear axles!!! My salesman never mentioned it...

MS Beautiful pic, but the color is rather affected by ambient lighting (sunset?) Gersh

Hard to say for sure what will happen with AO, but DSOM is obviously NOT a trendy color (witness the well-known sales figures). I'd say it's more like an orphan color. Yellow is what I would call a trendy color--high sales figures now though not so popular historically. But I don't think it...

Tasteless colors I think diversity is great. Henry Ford reportedly said "You can have your Ford any color you want, as long as you want black", or something to that effect. I like the different colors, and I like the fact that different people have differnt preferences. But I would...

Try Kerback Corvette--they get more than anyone else, I think. Not sure what their markup is. Gersh

Orange Since you can afford the loss on the resale, the car should be the first consideration--get the bestest, prettiest, zingiest color--definitely not Regular Red--but the darker Monterey Red is gorgeous. Also not Common Yellow. I have seen the Lemans Blue, and like it a lot. But I really...

Those do look pretty cool, and good price! BUT, I hate to undo the hard work of the engineers to reduce weight of the car--supposedly there is a dollar/kilogram formula that they use to decide about any given weight-loss measure. The Z06 front fenders, for example, are carbon fiber and weigh...

Sold I sold the car to a forum member on Z06Vette.com. Thanks.

velcro My Zee has the same problem--I generally drive with the windows down. After some thought I decided to use matching (black) sticky velcro to hold it tight--just be sure to put the fuzzy on the belt and the loops opposite, since your passengers don't want to fight the loop side sticking...

Patrick-- Thanks! My mistake, sorry. Gersh
