Picked up my Z16 from Kerbecks

Everything went very smoothly. Being form out of state I was a little hesitant at first. I just wished I would of done it sooner. They discounted it $12500 smoleys and man that Lemans blue is pretty.

Congrats on the Z16! Does it seem any quicker than your 02 or are you still breaking it in?

It only has 200+ miles on it but it rides differently than the old one. Wow I'm calling the '02 the old one. Anyway I like the ride better and also the seats. More comfortable. That was the first thing my wife noticed too. The seats and the ride.
That carbon fiber hood is wild too. Wow is it light. You have to be careful closing it.

It feels pretty much the same on accelaration but again I am still in the break in period.

Congrats! Bring it down to Capital Raceway in Crofton on September 12th. All Corvette Day sponsored by Tony's Corvettes and Corvette Club of America. If you don't want to race...there is a show for trophies. And that beautiful Z16 would place first!

I know this has nothing to do with it but I just pulled it out of the garage to wash the dust off and the damn differential is leaking This sucks. It is only a small amount but it shouldn't be there. :oo:

It shouldn't be leaking-you're right, but many do and mine did. It took two trips to get it fixed. It's been dry close to 6 months or so. Is it leaking on the left side-seems most common spot? Take a deep breath cause it's no big thing to fix, just a pain on the backside to deal with. Enjoy the car.
