I was just told I fell for a April fools joke...I guess time will...

I just watched partially through a video that the C8Z was just canceled. Is this true? Or just more YT BS?....

I don't want to own one either. They can cost $5K-6K per year for maintenance and repairs. And the parts are horribly expensive without being that much better in quality. Nope...I wouldn't own one...from Ferrari. But, a car with similar levels of performance and driving feel w/o all the...

Mmmm...It's ok...Would like to see it when it's integrated into the 'Build It' part of their main site...Right now it's a bit wonky...I'm sure they'll make it a lot better once it's completed...Maybe in another month?

I've always thought of mine to be an 'American Ferrari' but with a Kentuckian accent. Now...they've seemed to out Ferrari'ed Ferrari. I can't wait to drive one. Maybe even own one...

Not really...Though I love the sound of my LS7, I find the sound of the LT6 to be terrific. I've always wanted a Ferrari and the ripping canvas shriek of a Ferrari engine...and GM has now provided :beer

That's what it was... The concentricity...Interesting the Z28 427s exhibited the same issue. Perhaps I got lucky? I've not used any oil for the last 3-4 oil changes. Blackstone wrote I can do 10Kmi changes due to the lack of measurable wearable metals in the samples. So I do 8500-10K. With no...

Hi...I've actually stopped sending in samples. So far, so good. I just did a 2,000 mile round trip stay to Virginia and am closing in on 95,000 miles on the odo. There was a statement in Hib's article that GM asked Linimar(?) machining to start doing 100% inspections in Feb. 2011, if memory...

Now over 90K miles. So far, the engine is holding up well. Uses zero oil between changes. I stopped doing oil sample reports because the engine is showing no signs of internal measurable wear, according to the reports. So far, in my ownership, I've had to do these items: ROAD DAMAGE: Right...

I thought I'd post this latest oil sampling report for those of us concerned with valve guide and stem wear. The oil change was at 10Kmi with zero additions. The engine isn't using any oil, it seems.

People can't believe I've already have over 50,000 miles on the ODO. Mine's a 2013. So far, so good. No problems at all. Just regular wear and tear items. Tires, brakes... In fact, I drove my neighbor's 2007 Porsche 911 GT3. I had 20Kmi more on mine than he had on his. I thought, damn, this is...

I decide a while back to flush all the fluids in my 2013 when it got close to 40Kmiles. Took it to the dealer and they performed the services. Clutch, engine, cooling, P/S, brakes, trans and diff. All have fresh fluids. It wasn't cheap. But, I'm planning on keeping my Vette for a long time. So I...

I don't know if others who own a C6 have had this issue. Very occasionally, after parking for about 10-20 min, I'll get in, and there'd be no green indicator light on the start/stop ignition toggle switch. When I press the top of the rocker in to start, I get a 'engine' lit icon on the...

Going to get a GMPP before my 3 years are up on my b2b factory warranty. I found a dealership in the mid west that sells them at a substantial discount. Since I'm putting a lot of mileage on my Z, the 5/100K/$100 ded looks pretty good for about $1600. I'm hoping the price hasn't gone up much as...

So I decided to back my Vette out of the garage to, as the British might say, 'keep the works going around.' Welp, I backed out of the garage and I thought I'd shoveled enough. The car stopped moving. I started getting a sinking feeling. I put the gear lever in 1rst and the only things that...

Or, at least it feels that way.... After 17 months, the OEM GY EMTs finally needed replacement. I got a set of Michelin Super Sport (non EMT) tires installed. OMG!!! The difference is like night and day!! 1) No more hop and chatter from the front tires when doing a tight turn. 2) No more...

I've just racked up about 12,500 miles on my C6Z since I got it last September (9/23/12). Mechanically, no real issues. I just did a oil change for the winter (I live in CT) and put the NPP fuse back in (at 1500 rpm, the exhaust resonance with the windows up can cause the driver's side door...

Ok..So I don't feel like dragging out the hose and the bucket to clean my rims. I have those huge spider 18" & 19" rims that one can see into the next century through. And my brakes make a TON of dust. I use a splitting wheel duster that works well on the outside and the spokes, but, won't fit...

For those of us who need to display a front license plate...<moan>...there is a viable solution I found. A company in TX, Double AA makes a all metal plate holder that mounts between the splitter and bottom of the bumper using the existing 7mm screws. It's easy to mount, easy to remove for...

I just wanted to intro myself. I came from rather humble beginnings. I sold my IROC-Z28 last year and used the proceeds toward the new 'Vette. When it hit 200Kmiles, and the restoration bill was running to over the $45K mark (including some upgrades), I decided it was time to move on. I bought...
