I always think of this question from the opposite point of view; what options I don't have that I want.
Rather than wait I grabbed the first Z06 available on the lot. I would have taken all the options if it had them. What I miss though is the memory seat option and the monochromatic mirrors.
I hate having to re-adjust the seat. As HarleyB mentioned you can never get it back just right after another driver. Dual Zone heating is great also. I can adjust the heat/AC to my taste and the passenger then can modify their zone to suit them if needed.
BSMs? I like them and added them after purchase. However, I could live without them just as easily.

No... I had twilight sentinel on a 99 vert that I bought after someone turned it down, therefore I didn't have a choice on that individual option. I should have made my original post clearer, I meant on the regular Vet models.
I like both Memory & Dual Zone. I have had them in my Jeep GC for 2 years. I like the A/C on, wife wants the heat on. I am almost a foot taller, and after my wife takes the car, I could never get the seat back to the exact same way I had it. And just try telling her she can't drive the Z. This same argument almost caused a divorce with my last Vette. (That is ONE option I CAN'T afford!!!)
HarleyB (the twilight sentinal I agree is worthless)

I'm with you Harley! At least we know who "rules" the roost!
I definitly couldn't afford the "D" option - the wife is an attorney!
As for the car options, my wife was always closing the vents on her side of the car because she was cold... I'll keep the "dual" system..
As for the memory option, I'm the only that drives it so I could have done without it. It was part of the allocation and the dealer told me that once a TPW is "set", you can't change the options. No biggie.... doesn't cost much anyway.

It is just warming up here in KC and my neighbors are already flipping me crap about my lawn. What can I say, I take pride in it. Not the landscaping, just the lawn. The first picture is of my front lawn.
This one is of my lawn with the neighbors in the background so you can see how well...
We have a compact 20 x 20 townhouse garage and wanted the interior to provide storage for 2 cars and the basics; beer fridge, hot water sink, TV/audio stuff, compressed air and plenty of light.
Here 'tis:
Most of the building materials including wall cabinets are from...
Recently relocated from Vancouver Island back to the mainland. Acquired a new daily driver which will be a stablemate for the Z06. Also, it is a better weapon for use on the mainland freeways. I'll admit having gone over to the dark side (Ford) on the last few vehicles, but no one else makes...
