Default High mile C6Z's? I fail at life.

Anyone know what I should look for with higher mile vettes? Like 100k+?

What are the parts that usually wear out? Looking for something to get me between College station and Pearland quickly. Are the quiet on the inside? I need to be able to use the phone during my trips. Whats the gas mileage running about 100mph?

Sounds weird I know but just bare with me lol. College station doesn't have any economical opportunity.

Yeah bunch dick heads in here. My 99 ws6 got 28/29 at 90, and I'm gonna be driving back and forth every day. Usually I just cruise at 90, it's a comfortable speed at 2 am.

Not gonna be looking forward to the insurance at my age though. The f250 gas mileage is just gonna be too bad after 40 inch tires.

Who the hell cares about gas mileage when you're in a C6Z?

Gas mileage will depend if you put a lift on it too. LOL

You shouldn't "cruise" at 100 and talk on the phone.....I would think if that is your plan you would worry more about your insurance once the tickets stack up.
