Cool car.

What color was the Z? I don't think I could ever give up a C6Z in a trade

the z was velocity yellow, it was a beast, cam, t trim sc, arh headers n x pipe, borla atak. even with the charge tube disconnected it did 50mph burnouts with ease.

alot of stuff is discontinued on those cars. electrical parts etc. melling quit making the ls7 dry sump oil pumps so used ones average 3 to 500 bucks, the aftermarket is 1500-2k . this car had none of those issues and i wanted rid of it while it didnt.

my c5 has some tough to find parts as well but atleast the ls6 can be fixed or rebuilt pretty easy. the la7 though tough to beat, it aint cheap to repair.

The C5-C7 Vettes are brutes when you start modifying them. I recently sold my C7 and I miss it. I've been eyeing C6Zs lately.

The new Poncho is sweet tho! Sometimes a change is needed, and every now and then we're gifted an easy sale/trade that makes sense.
