Default Picked up my '01 TR/Mod Red ZO6
Just drove the '01 TR/MR ZO6 back from Hickory, NC. Five hours of pure awesome. These cars are phenomenal. There is NO reason to modify these. Out of the box it is FAST as hell, handles like it's on rails and is quiet and comfortable.

I WILL NOT be doing any mods (performance-wise). It's so much fun the way it is. It's under GMPP warranty as well.

The only possible mod would be SP500 wheels but I really like the stock dark machine grey wheels on it.

I got 27.6 MPG through the mountains in NC and TN, not bad at all, cruising at 80 MPH.

This car is pimp. I love it. It's an absolute blast to drive. I was going to add the HUD to it but I really like the normal gauge setup. I had the HUD on my '00 C5 Coupe but I don't miss in on the ZO6.

You should just go ahead and order headers now... maybe an x-pipe and a Vararam... That way you won't have to wait for them when you change your mind


BTW: R. carbone.... love the avatar, I have that t-shirt

Which one? The "I Support Single Moms" or "**** You I Have Enough Friends"?

I have the "**** You I Have Enough Friends" shirt and it usually gets the point across.
