C Z06

[dean phillips]

Does any one have one yet? Mines due to land this weekend here UK. Posted before thought this would be first in the UK, will it be?

You'll certainly get yours before I get mine because ..... I haven't ordered!

What are you driving now? Have you had a Vette before?
Have you driven a Z06?
What are your expectations of the Z06?

[cheeky]

will be very interested to hear how you find it

mine was due in March until I was (just) told it may be MUCH longer

through whom have you bought yours?

[dean phillips]

cheeky- got it direct from the US myself. This will be my forth purchase from the same guy over there. Paying list fully loaded. Tried the UK dealers some time ago, but car`nt live with their ££££.
Real hard if not impossible to find one now at list, but looking for another for March.

Interesting. Do you know the differences between the US and European specs?

Are you really looking for a second Z???

Minor details with the lights- side indicators usuall stuff. That`ll be sorted at SVA. Yes my second one is sorted now. This first one which is now 9th of the 12th delivery is not my first colour choice. My new one, for March is exactly what I wanted. I had to take the first one to be sure of the second.
Big news for the european deliveries (from a good source) is that the first new ones have been put back to September 2006 ! Production has been switched to meet the US demand. Nothing to do with $30k over list eh!
Any bods here got one on order from the UK dealers? Be interesting to hear what the official line on deliveries are. Sales people I`ve spoken to, don`t seem to know alot.

I heard the same but about the second batch of new cars, not the first. Wouldn't have thought they'd switch production in that direction given that the margin on European sales is greater and that there are already unallocated Zs available in the US, with mark-ups over MSRP down below $5k in most places.

Re: differences in spec, Stratstone has told me more than once that "some bits are stronger on the European cars", but with no detail... is that b/s?
