Default My new to me Z06 pics

Picked up a new to me 2012 Z06. Had 11K miles but almost like new.

Excuse the telephone pole reflection on the car and window. I'm no photographer!

Thanks guys! The color wasn't my first choice but I'm beginning to really like it. Need to do something about the wheels. I like chrome!

Did not know Supersonic was a one year color. I like it even better! LOL

I plan an intake and headers but nothing drastic. it makes pretty good power even stock, for an old guy that is.

Would definitely tune it were it not for the 5 year warranty. Might go ahead anyway!

I can see why Carlisle was a one year color!

Hit up Mike@diablosport here.... Diablosport hand helds DO NOT change your CVN cal ID....meaning, no trace. When I used to work at the dealership...I would recommend them all the time. The programmer itself makes power but, if you were that hardcore about wanting a "custom tune" just have him locate a chipmaster dealer in your area that can do custom tunes and load them into the diablosport tool.


I only recommend them because I know it's untraceable,..and it works. I wouldn't wanna void a warranty either if I had one.

Beautiful color, I really like it since it is a color you do not see all the time. I am looking forward to upgrading to a C6Z as soon as I get back from a deployment.

Thanks again guys! And it's fixing to get faster with an intake (already on) headers and a tune.

As much power as this car has now can't imagine why I need more. I can spin these factory size Good Years at 60 mph in second gear on concrete already.

Nice find.

Those are the best looking style of factory C6 wheels IMO, and painted is the best looking finish.

And all around with the wheels and car paint color I think the combo is a rarer one which is nice.
