104K miles, Bought the car with 500 miles, selling because my new C8 gets here this week.
MUST INCLUDE PHONE NUMBER OR I WILL JUST DELETE THE EMAIL.
IF THE AD IS UP IT IS STILL AVAILABLE.
Mechanically this car is 100% with no issues and well maintained. Last year I did a 100K mile maintenance that included replacing ALL fluids in the car. Transmission flush, coolant flush, brake fluid flush, differential oil, air filter, cabin filter, spark plugs as well as a regular engine oil and filter change. Last year, 4 new Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 ZP tires that currently have about 5K miles on them. Also at 100K miles I did 4 new OEM GM updated brake rotors and new PowerStop pads. Because this has a Z51 performance package, the OEM brake pads are designed for track use and the brake dust is corrosive for the wheel finish and hard to clean off. When the car was new I switched to the PowerStop pads and they were still serviceable when I changed them out at 100K miles. New GM OEM windshield wipers just installed. Seems insignificant but it makes a difference, they are designed to work at speed and auto parts store windshield wipers just aren't the same.
Plug and Play upgrades included are AFM Delete maintaining 8 cylinder all the time. Also a Vitesse Motorsports throttle progressivity controller. It changes how responsive the throttle is to the ECM. It has a Sport and an Economy setting. Sport has 0-9 setting, 9 being the most responsive and Economy has 0-7, 7 being best gas mileage. SP0 or EC0 is Stock. Very easy to use with a single push button knob. I run it at EC0 (stock) and when I hit the button it goes to SP5. I get 21 MPG.
Cosmetic and Functional upgrades include Z06 front grill and Z06 rear intake cooling ducts. I have also installed Morimoto Aventador style sequential taillights. The original Z51 rear spoiler was replaced with a factory GM "High Wing" spoiler. I have ALL the original parts and they are included with the purchase. I have a new set of Carbon Fiber side skirts I haven’t put on yet. Also included is 3 sets of original wheels. 2 sets are black (1 Black set is on the car) and 1 set is chrome. They have some minor road rash and the chrome wheels are notorious for peeling at the bead causing bead leaks, black wheels look better. I have also added a sound deadening kit to the rear and behind the seats. The exhaust uses control valves to change the exhaust tone and flow. That fuse has be relocated to keep the values open at all times. The fuse is included but I don't know why anyone would ever want to put that back in.
Dual (triple sort of) roofs included. Comes with "Body color" Laguna Blue matching roof that was removed with less than 1000 miles and placed in the Corvette protective roof bag in mint condition. I purchased the "Glass" see thru roof and have used it ever since. After 8 years the glass roof, made of acrylic, has some barely noticeable crystalizing (not sure what to call it) also some surface delamination HOWEVER that is irrelevant because I just replaced it with a New Glass roof. Basically, there are 3 roofs included, Mint original Laguna Blue body color roof, New GM OEM glass roof and a used glass roof.
Notable options include Bose Infotainment system with Sirius XM, Heads Up Display, Glass roof, Z51 package, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, electric adjusting seats, heated and ventilated seats. The 2016 model year was an improvement over the previous year’s that included front and rear parking cameras, electric rear closing hatch. It also has much improved computer performance than prior models. On Star is available with a subscription. Corvette car cover. Custom front plate mount.
Other spare parts include things I have collected "just in case" because I know they are high use and prone to failure. So far, I haven't needed any of them but they come with the car. They include the Infotainment screen, new OEM steering wheel and the driver door latch system. I also have some miscellaneous interior parts. For example, there is a silver ring on the shift knob and over time it has some minor imperfection that most people wouldn't notice or even care about, I have a new shift knob and boot to replace it. Also have a replacement center console cover that I might install now.
This car is my Daily Driver and gets garaged for the winters, never seen snow or salt. Because it's daily driven there have been some minor incidents that caused some cosmetic damages. Never had any mechanical damage from any incidents. I've had 3 mishaps, and all were extremely minor but still expensive to fix. As a result, it has a New GM OEM HUD windshield last year which is a good thing because it doesn't have 100K miles of sand pitting damage, it's NEW. The front bumper cover, Z06 grill and cameras were also replaced last year due to rock chips. The nose was repainted (flawlessly color matched), I am extremely picky. The rear bumper cover was replaced also which allowed for the High Wing spoiler install. For total disclosure, I've had over $10K in body repairs done due to very minor damage. The 3 incidents include a "Love tap" in the rear by a drunk driver, barely a scratch and she was taken away in handcuffs. A dump truck on the highway with a broken rear door pouring rocks onto the highway, this caused rock chips in the paint and a broken windshield. The same week I got it back after repair from the dump truck a Deer jumped out and took out my passenger mirror and window (didn't break). So it has a new passenger mirror and new window.
Despite what you might think from reading above, this car is a solid 9.5 out of 10 in all aspects I have NO Complaints and it's still a joy to drive every time I get in it. It's Adult owned, I drive it, enjoy it, don't baby it, I never beat on, I take care of it, no burnouts or donuts. And it literally comes with a truckload of extra parts.
Optionally I have a custom installed Valentine One radar detector with remote display, remote power and sounds controls. It works in conjunction with a cellular connected tablet running JBV1 app and WAZE for navigation and road awareness information. It alerts to all kinds of threats such as road hazards, speed cameras, aircraft speed traps, VASCAR, traffic, crashes, police and several other things. Though NOT INCLUDED in the sale price, it can be purchased separately if you want to keep it in the car.
