I had one of those and yes their fast but I had to fall out of it to get out LOL I was surprised on how much space is in the trunk of these Z06's . Your right about getting in and out , but at 640 hp it sure is fun to stay in. lol

I told her to change the date because of an important holiday. She didn't agree. Sold the Mustang last year to a collector, made me an offer I couldn't refuse. If I can squeeze a couple hours in at Dons I'm going to ride down. I don't think there's any room for cars in his yard anymore.

I know , those are some great numbers for stock cars. Mine has been touched a little. Procharger alone added just over 200 hp. Full exhaust, cam , heads, intake and tune does the rest. This C5 Z06 was rated at 405 hp stock.
Eddie Posted June 12, 2010 Author #12 Posted June 12, 2010 Owen I almost a 76 a few years ago, nice car.
