The last year for the C6 Z06 and I scored a Tim Boone stupidly low price on my 2013 C6 Z06 2LZ in Arctic White.

Congrats on your new Z!! Like you, I sold off my C5 FRC, also in Arctic White. In all of 10+ years owning my C5 FRC, I never saw another AW FRC in person. Ever. And in my 3 years of owning the C6 Z, I have yet to see any other AW C6 Z in person. I am in a roll.

Give it 3-5 months and you will not miss your C5Z any longer
AWESOME!!

You are one of the 25 Artic White Z owners (non 60th anniversary). Very rare indeed. Glad you chimed in and I'll PM you to connect. Please post a pic or two if you have a chance.

Congrats!
LOL! Absolutely!

He drove it around the empty parking lot before we loaded it on the trailer.

Would always give the kiddos rides in the Z. Carseat, turn the airbag off, and run errands

Congrats OP!

I know what you mean...and you certainly liked both enough to wind up keeping both. Maybe someday I'll get another C5Z. The simplicity of them will make them desireable in many years to come as the more tech in cars becomes harder to maintain.

Hey Chad. Thanks for the opportunity to make the purchase. The car is nestled in and playing just fine with its stablemates...lol. But now I see why you didn't mind getting rid of the Speedway White Z. That C6Z rocks

Hi James!

Glad everything worked out. Hope you are enjoying your new Speedway White Z. Corvettes in white are awesome!

It's crazy how different the paint codes are side by side.

I agree. I know the SW is a toned down color, but the photos in this thread caught my attention too. I have yet to park my SWZ next to an Arctic White.

I have. The speedway white looks really rich, deep, and creamy whereas the arctic white looks bluish like skim milk. Definitely cool having them side by side.
