Just back from the Daytona 500. What an amazing event. Anyway, wanted to see some Z06 's in the flesh so took a trip to Stingay Chevrolet in Tampa. Bumped into a really nice English guy who lives out there and an American collecting his new Z06 with the Z07 pack. Had a great chat and a good look at some cars. The aero bits may not be to everyone's taste but personally I loved it! Also the new cup tyres are bald! Want this car in the UK.

I, too, was at the Daytona 500. I took my C7 Z06 and my Dad to the race. Epic 15 hour drive back home on Friday... love this car.

I really wish the new Vette was available and supported over here frown

Unfortunately the UK is still void of the Z06. However I did read somewhere about a new Cadillac showroom opening in London, and they would be able to special order Corvette and Camero.

It's such a shame we can't buy a corvette from a showroom here in the UK

I'm so tempted to chop my C5 Z06 in for the new Z06 - love this colour.

That ad may be a bit misleading unless you know something we don't - yes they are authorised service agents and were selling a 'grey' C7 recently but there is no mention of 'authorised' sales on their websites. I am due to interview GM's North American Aftersales Manager for Corvette and Cadillac shortly for Vette news - so I can ask the 'question'.

I don't want to get a comment deleted for the advertising rules. We are now an official sales and aftersales agent.

I'm not one to buy something that I can't physically touch. I want to go into a showroom and part with my cash and drive one away. Otherwise I'd see sense and stick with what I have now wink

Can you provide more details - which models will you be selling - Stingray manual/8 speed auto? Z06 manual/auto? - will you have a demonstrator? What are the Z06 prices?
