C5 VS C6 I had an 03 ZO6, It was a good ride but it just didn't have the giddy-up of the 90 TT Callaway I sold. So sadly missing all that H.P. & Torque I ponied (pardon the expression) up the Sheckles and 15 months ago I received my 06 Z06. I couldn't find a dealer to let me test drive any of...

2007 ZO6 Congratulations and LOL. So how many Loonies did it set you back up there? 59-62USNVET

24.5K OVER MSRP I'll bet if you offered 24.5K over MSRP the dealer will surely bite. If not, he is nuts. 59-62USNVET

Vets & Kids After I bought my 06 Z06 the wife and daughter read the riot act to me about taking any of our kids for rides. You are definitely fortunate to have an understanding spouse. Buckle-Up in those safe car seats and enjoy the ride. I never experienced any better. 59-62USNVET

V6? If they are serious about a V6, how about if they put in two V6s and we end up with one serious V12? 59-62USNVET

EXHAUST SWITCH So were did you get the switch? Is it maintained or momentary? Button or toggle? Is it rated @10 amps as is the fuse? Where did you locate it? Please share. 59-62USNVET

Don't you just adore it? Like they say;"Don't ask, don't tell" 59-62USNVET

EXHAUST FUSE It only takes less than a minute to pull the fuse. To really hear the difference, at idle, pull the fuse with the engine running. I just LOVE that throaty sound.There is an extra exhaust "Rattle" at about 1500-2000. If I get tired of the noise or want some peace on a long trip just...

87 TT Lost in Fire I Posted the story a while back in the Callaway section, I believe. But anyway, the car was not that old and the consuming fire was caused by a ruptured clutch fluid hose. My own insurance company ended up totaling it and paying me 10G more than what the car cost. 59-62USNVET

CONSUMED BY FIRE I lost my 87 TT Callaway almost the same way......What a shame 59-62USNVET

Bottom Line Interesting that you chose Black and Yellow. The 06 Z06 production numbers are: Black................1672..... 26.7% Velocity Yellow...1464..... 23.3% Totals: 3136 50% What a coincidence!!!! 59-62USNVET

Front Bracket vetmaniac: What holds the bracket to the body? I wouldn't want to drill. Which one would I choose? Thanks. 59-62USNVET

Front Plate Bracket When I got delivery of my 06 Z06 this past January the dealer strongly suggested NOT to install the bracket from the factory as it requires drilling a couple of holes. I took his advise. When I was hit in the rear a month or so ago the cop took a walk around the car and...

COLORS I had a 76 L82 Orange,an 87 Callaway TT Black, a 90 Red Callaway TT, an 03 Red Z06 and now Have a Velocity Yellow 06 Z06. In my opiniont the yellow was the best of all. Good luck with your choice. 59-62USNVET

Ambulance Chasing Tammy: Guess what came in the mail yesterday. Two unsolicited introductory letters from LAWYERS willing to take on "my case" at no cost except contingent fees after obtaining favorable judgement for my "injuries". To quote one short sentance: "This office obtained this...

06 Z06 Deposit Always U.A.P. Dealer allocations are based on prior sales. Make sure that your deposit is refundable if he doesn't deliver. He should know for sure by now if any have been allocated to him. He might be trying to get one from another dealer. But I'm not sure if any dealer would...

As a supplement to my recent thread and especially to any Velocity Yellow Vet owners; this bit of info: The body shop informed me that the paint is something like a "three step?" process that costs more and most important according to the body shop owner is unavailable to California owners. I...

NECK "INJURY" TAMMY: Funny you should mention a possible "Neck Injury". Within one week of the accident I received an unsolicited letter from a local ambulance chasing chiropractor offering "free" insurance compensating services. His letter to me included a copy of the accident report that was...

Need a shoulder 6 Shooter: At this point in time grandma is starting to look pretty good to me. 59-62USNVET

I am not getting any sympathy from either friends or family, so I feel that I must reach out to my fellow Corvette owners. Last week I was in a line of traffic stopped at a light. The light turned green and the car in front of me proceeded to go. Before I could move I was hit three rapid times...
