Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

2007 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Review featuring the Chevy Corvette C6 generation of course. The Chevrolet Corvette has always been an obtainable supercar for normal people but the 2007 C6 Corvette Z06 is at the perfect price point in the used market. In this review of the 2007 Chevy Corvette Z06, we will see just how good this car has aged.

    WOW, this Z06 is a BEAST !!!! Nice review Kevin ! If i was ready to buy my Corvette, this would definitely be in the running against the C7 Stingray with 7 speed manual ! I’m about 4 years away until retirement and around the time when I’ll be ready to get a Corvette. For $28k this would be an absolute bargain !! Ive had a few black cars and obviously it is the hardest to keep clean, but i would overlook that if i had the chance to get this one... Believe it or not Mike (Brink of Speed) suggested to me about a month ago to NOT go for a C6 (base model) and go for the C7 Stingray... I agree, i think the C7 Stingray has a better designed interior with much better interior quality craftsmanship. But if i have the opportunity to get this Z06, it would be TOUGH comparison to a C7 Stingray... Currently a 2016 C7 Stingray with about same 50k miles is going for about mid 30k... so does the $7k difference justify a 2016 C7 Stingray over this one ? MMmmmm. I dont have to make that decision but it would be fun if i had too. TBH, I probably would go for this Z06 if had to decide today. Keep your reviews coming. by the way, what is your full time job ? Seams to me your KZread channel is a passionate thing that you do as a hobby ?

    Yea he's not wrong the C7 still is the superior vehicle no doubt but I have to admit the connection you feel to older cars is next level. I still think a stingray with a stick would be amazing for street driving with the skinnier wheels. Yea this is definitely a passion project for me but I definitely want to do this full time as I take these car reviews very seriously. I run some other businesses on ebay and do rental cars for extra income as well but car reviews is def my end goal. Let me know when you get that stingray sir you will not regret it

    Exhaust Sports Auto awesome 👏 dude. Yeah your car reviews are amazing and I thoroughly enjoy them. I’m checking your IG daily. I’m home recovering from COVID19 and so look forward to your Reviews!! Yes I’ll definitely keep in touch about my Corvette purchase. I wish I could buy one now , but unfortunately I’m still financing my 2013 Lexus ES350 which won’t be paid off until about 4 years and I can’t swing 2 car Payments now (unless I stop contributing to my TSP 401k which is nearly $800/month). I can’t be foolish, yeah a C6 Z06 or a base C7 stingray would be awesome now but I need to be smart so I have more income when I retire in about 4 years!!

    I have a black 08 C6Z with the tinted windows much like this car, but with C7Z wheels. While I have more exotic and faster cars, this car is still one of my favorite cars I've owned. The raw, analog, yet exotic feel/looks can't be beat for what I paid for it many years ago. Prices on them have gone up, but this is one car I think actually should be selling for more than it was selling for. Even at today's prices, it's still a bargain for what it is. This car was prowling the streets back in 2005, it still looks amazing (thanks to GM trying to make it look more like a Viper), and it's still a force to be reckoned with all these years later. Not to mention doing the heads, cam, and intake will add almost 200 hp... naturally aspirated. Let that sink in, a 700 hp NA car that weighs 3100 lbs, with sharp looks, excellent brakes and handling, all for under $50k. This car will always be a legend...

    I've told myself maybe I'll get a C7 or maybe a C8. All though I have found the C6 is so roomy and comfortable on long rides, a great daily car too! I love love the looks of the C6 the wide appearance and the smooth aerodynamics of the body kinda gives it a European supercar look. The handling is great and even better with suspension upgrades. The raw feel of the road that you get is great! If I Upgrade to a newer C7 I will still keep My C6 for sure, can't let it go! At 47,000 miles, I have had almost zero problems with my C 6 very dependable car! I have no fear to get in it and drive it cross country.

    24 Years old and owner of a low mile 06 z06. The car is a dream, my car is mildly built to 600 crank horsepower, 510 wheel. They're beautiful and everything's fluid ecspecially the shifting. At 3100 lbs, the car handles like it's in rails! 505 horsepower is alot, 505 horsepower on a 3000lb car is a force to reckon with. The remarkably engineered, the only downfall is the ls7 engine which is a ticking time bomb with the valve drop issue.. But if you have a z06 you don't wanna keep that bad boy stock anyways, so just get new heads and add more excitement to the car. I couldn't ask for a better car!

    I just bought an '06 Z (21K miles) a couple weeks ago; stock with CAI. And then I read about the valve guide/valve drop issue. Wasn't happy at first, but after concluding the only solution was to change the heads, now I'm excited. I'll be having West Coast CNC heads, a bigger cam, and headers installed within the next few days. The shop that's doing it says I can expect about 570 whp. Wouldn't have thought I'd be seriously modding it two weeks ago when I bought it, but agreed...as exciting as it is now, it'll only make it that much more exciting to drive. And the peace of mind that the possibility of catastrophic engine damage could occur at any moment is eliminated, is invaluable.

    To be fair the c6 and c7 have an almost identical chassis, so does the c5. Just minor revisions. The ride quality is mostly in dampening and the differences on the skid pad are mostly caused by the factory tires that were optioned over the years, obviously tires have gotten quite a bit better.
