    I own a 2018 z06 3lz with carbon ceramic rotors, I just hit 7000 miles , best sports car I’ve ever owned, it’s awesome, cc long tube headers, corsa x-pipe ,magma flow npp cat back , Kong xport supercharger, 18 degree lower balancer, katech 103mm throttle body, big gulp CAI, and I have it tuned for 100 octane sunoco 🤣 it makes 750 wheel, have Toyo 888rs on the back, this car is a MONSTER, if you can afford it ,you won’t be sorry 👍🏼🙏🇺🇸

    I love your excitement! I have a 2019 Admiral blue Z06 with the Z07 package I didn’t realize the carbon rotors don’t break well right after a car wash. Like ice hahaha but I love the car and drive it every chance I get. Thank you for the review!

    May 2023 I bought a 2016 Z06, A8, convertible, 3LZ, in daytona sunrise orange metallic. I like the soft top roof and the trunk deck better than the coupe. My previous cars were a 1988 Ford Mustang GT, a 1988 Corvette Z51, a 1991 Corvette ZR-1, and a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V. I've had other cars but they aren't really worth mentioning in this category. The Z06 beats them all and is phenomenal. Thanks for the video!

    Considering where the C7 Z06 sits time-wise on Nürburgring, it deserves a higher rating for cornering. An "A," for sure.

    I have a manual C7 Z06 3LZ and absolutely love it . I fully PPF the entire car with x pipe and ported throttle body. It's my dream car. No one needs more than this car . It's truly too much for public roads. C7 manual Z06 should appericate in value in good condition. Total win .

    Nice review. I have a 19 Z06 2LZ manual and have ordered a C8 Z06. I am not sure if I can reasonably keep both, and having not driven the C8 I am not sure which I will choose. They are such different cars and would like to keep both, but not sure how feasible that is.

    I just picked up'15 Z06 with 12k miles yesterday for $65k. It's like a new car, inside.
    It's my second, in Velocity Yellow, like the one here.
    Where else will you find 650 HP a 7-speed manual, and 0-60 in 3.2 seconds for that price?
    It is simply the best manual transmission car America has ever made

    Actually the c7 z06, grand sport, and zr1 comes factory with 335 section width tires not 315. And the stingray is 285. And the carbon fiber on the dash in the car you are driving is a factory option. Not sure if its real or fake tho
