Any idea what the cost was? Is it cheaper to convert a Z06 to a vert, or the other way around?

It's still way :cool:

Caravaggio charges US $12,500 for the Z06 convertible conversion. That includes paint to match existing (stock) body color and your choice of convertible top color. Everything else is optional and extra cost. Granted, very expensive but they do top notch work as evidenced by Jon's beautiful EB conversion.

You could always take a C5 convertible and try to convert it into a pseudo-Z06 but it still wouldn't be the same, IMHO. And I'd wager your costs would end up being considerably HIGHER than a Z06->convertible conversion and in the end you'd still only have a clone. The Z06 is a heckuva lot more than just an LS6 under the hood, ya know. :yesnod:

My TR Z06 convertible is wonderful and a real attention getter... once people realize what the car really is!

I agree, and believe me, that has been discussed at great length around our household. If our Z06 was any other color than Torch Red, it would be a no brainer, but the red is pretty cool as it is so I dunno what we'll do just yet...

And that full Caravaggio Z06 GS Convertible conversion doesn't run cheap... $12,500 for the convertible conversion PLUS $15,495 for the GS conversion PLUS $3295 for a removable hardtop and oh yeah, don't forget to add in the cost of the Z06, too. ;)
