Hello All.... Newbie....

Hi, my name's Luke... I'm new to the Vette, but not to the LS1/LS6 motor, I used to have a 00' Camaro SS with almost all the bolt ons... anyway, any/all help with the general mods of the car will appreciated in the months to come. I plan on headers, x-pipe, maybe a mild cam, cold air/ram air intake, and perhaps a shifter...

here are some pics of my new ride... man its great to be back in a sports car. I bought it with 9300 miles on it, last Sunday in Detroit and drove it back that day. I got it for $33k even. It has right at 10k miles on it now. It is a 2001 Z06 with solid black interior. The only mods/extras it came with was a car cover.

anyway, let me know what ya think..

Sweeeeeeet. Both the car and the price

Last August, I bought a used '02 for 40k, with 13.5k miles on it... And I used to think THAT was a deal!

With the price difference, mod the hell out of it!!!

Oh, and welcome to this great site

Geoff

Hey Luke,
Welcome to the family. It's nice to see another "fastest" color car added to the site.

Congratulations and good luck. We are here to answer ALL your questions.

Charlie

Welcome the the site Luke! You'll find some extremely knowledgable people here. If you dont know about the re-ring on 01's you might want to do a search or ask 01 owners about their circumstance. Good luck!

I have heard about the oil consumption problems on 01's... This car so far, has yet to burn any oil.. I hope I got an okay one.. it was made the 1st of November in 2000

Thanks for all the kind words on the car...

Luke
