Sinister! Love the chrome on black. Only thing it needs is the chrome badge package (what's standard on the Stingray).

On white, yes, but not on black. Maybe I'm getting old...but I dig black on white, or chrome on black
Now, my white car is in desperate need of the carbon flash badge package. It also needs those new clear bumper lens

Right on!
For my use slapping a Procharger on my current car would make more sense, and cost way less to upgrade. I'm happy at the moment with my bolt-on LT1 powerplant though, it moves just fine and is plenty of fun!

Re: 2015 Z06 Vette
Yeah agreed, quite the cost difference. Could make more power with yours and still have money left over.

You can make that argument about nearly any car. "I can make an Evo faster than a GTR for way less than 100k!"

Well yes I understand, but we are comparing a corvette to a corvette with little age difference and roughly 40-60k difference in price. It all depends on what you want i suppose.

I completely agree with you. What I meant is, for my personal use of the car, I would get no where even close to taking advantage of the Z06 suspension, brakes, tires, aero, etc. for the street duty it sees. If I tracked it would be a different story, but I don't, and have no intention to do so. Hell, let's be honest, I don't even need the Z51 package for my Sunday drives to the taco shop and pool, but I wanted the heavier duty cooling and brakes for cruises

Yeah. Same dealer we bought our last one from. They got 4 total, and apparently can't sell a single one of them. We've gotten 2 of theirs. Working on the other 2.
