2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 review from North America
"Fantastic!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Before my Z06 I owned a 2002 C5, and the Z feels like a completely different car. I purchased my Z with about 13000 miles and now have about 16500 on it. Only things changed on the car was I had the dealer lower the suspension. Not a big job, I guess they take some slack out of the suspension bolts, lowered the car about 1/4 inch and actually looks a lot better. NOTHING has gone wrong with this car. My old C5 had its share of mystery lights coming on, must have built on a Monday? As far as performance goes, AWESOME! Everyone has their favorite brand, bottom line is how can anyone not enjoy 405hp. Only things that irritate me about the car is the skip shift and the trunk does not fully pop up when you want to open it. Otherwise, for what these cars cost to buy and maintain, it's a win win.
