I wouldn't purchase a Z06 in the hopes of making money with it.
What are the 90-95 ZR1's going for? they were $70K new.

A new Z06 will be worth less in a few years than it is worth today, just like the C5 Z06. C7 will be a superior car. Just like the C6 is to the C5.

That said, Z06 is a awesome car, he should look into a used Z06 if he wants to save some money, then you get the best of both worlds.

The A6 was introduced in the Corvette for MY2006 and was therefore available for 2 model years of the LS2 before the LS3.

Hey Zippy!

I can avow that Zippy is a Corvette addict and even better than that, he's a first class guy and my friend!!

Enthusiast with a capital E.

He's the real deal and he moved from Ron Fellows commemorative to get into his Wil car. Wasn't it a silver C6 Z06 before the Fellows car Zip?

Good to see you here buddy. You are the genuine article!!!

Hope to see you in Indy for the unveil.

Zip used to live around the block from FBodFather.

What about talk of the Z06 getting the LSA? I think that would take away some of the thunder of the Z06.

IMO, the C7 Z06 and 5th Gen Z28 should carry a direct injected 6.2 V8 making 500-550hp.
