Re: 2004 Commerative Z06 Looks pretty damn good. That particular option package is the Z16 option. That gives you the paint scheme and the carbon fiber hood. Other than that, the only thing different for the 2004 ZO6 is a little different suspension tuning supposedly to maintain its performance while offering a more compliant ride. The Z16 option will set you back close to 5 grand....a pretty good chunk of change for basically an appearance package. The Carbon fiber hood does save you about 10 pounds for what that is worth. All in all, I think it is very sharp...but a lot of cash.

I hope you know a sales manager at the dealership, because they are the ones who have to approve any deals. So even if your friend was a salesman and wanted to give you a smoking deal, he still wouldn't be able to unless the sales manager approves it. Now if your friend is above the sales manager, then you can get any deal he wants to give you.
By the way, were you behind me leaving Fox and Hound saturday night?

Re: 2004 Commerative Z06 I think it looks pretty sweet. Ive got the Commemerative C5R as my background on my computer. I like the overall look, and thought its about time Chevy finally markets the C5Rs accomplishments in ALMS, its too bad it couldnt go 3-4 at LeMans tho

Re: 2004 Commerative Z06 Yea, like the other have said. You better be willing to shell out over 56k for that vette. That is a limited edition vehicle and obtaining one can be a big task. The dealership you are talking about might only be allocated one or two Z16's. I don't see no dealer giving away a allocation like that to give you a deal at sticker or below. That is their opportunity to make a lot of extra cash off that car.

I'm still getting used to the way this car handles compared to the SS. Dean
Re: 2004 Commerative Z06
A few more ponies wouldn't have hurt either!
But, i think the 'main' reason they didnt add any more ponies to the C5, was b/c they're trying to get the C6 straight and all that. So, 405hp will have to due for now...(like thats a bad thing
