    What do you guys think of the C5 Z06? Still worth it 22 years later? Let me know if you'd like to buy it or any other specific Corvette now that I'm in the position to sell them! Stay tuned for all the Corvettes to come! 👍👍

    I am the original owner of a 2001 C5 Z06. My car has 27,000 miles and is all stock. People don't realize how fat the new Corvettes have become. It was never Zora's intention to pile on the weight and add horsepower. I also own a C8 and a C6 ZR1. You can feel the weight difference in the C5 Z06 which makes it a joy to drive! Great video by the way!

    I was the winner of Justin's C5 giveaway. This is also an awesome car and great review! Justin - You have an eye for great cars and quality. I agree with the comment that @petercarey5074 made. The C5 I won was tastefully modified to perfection, which is why I take it to shows just the it was when Justin gave it away. C5's are great and this one reviewed is in excellent condition. Great Vlog Justin!

    I have an 03 Z06, black with black/red interior and 40K miles. Bought it in 12 for 25K ( 24k miles) from 2nd owner who had the engine built and procharged for 685 hp. Stock wheels/tires on it so impossible to do a solid dig. Rolls on the freeway are fun, always enjoy taking down the newer muscle cars.

    Nice video! Just picked up one as my first sports car last year. The short gearing, eagerness to rev, and room for 295 tires up front are my favorite parts! Seems made for AutoX. Feels raw, exposed, and faster than it is, unlike newer cars. They’re holding value well, too.

    A little than 2k miles a year. Honestly I’d prefer this one over the garage queens sitting in garages that are only driven once a blue moon. There comes a point where low mileage can affect reliability. Thus, garage queens are overrated. Especially for those of us that wanna drive these cars

    I drive a C5 or C6 every week. For me after driving a C7/C8. When I drive a C5 Z06 I feel like it’s waining to get the power out. Like the engine is straining to put out more power. Just my opinion.
