Default Z06 Z07 purchase

Hey all! Looking at purchasing a C6 Z06. How does one tell if the Z07 package is actually in the car? Aside from the obvious, ceramic brakes, what else should I look for? Appreciate the help guys!!

Z07 also has the ZR1’s 19” front and 20” rear wheels, but the ceramics and RPO Z07 on the glove box are the obvious. Also, 2011 was the first year of availability and the only year that didn’t require the carbon fiber splitter and side skirts.

The CCB’s are the easiest check (a very few have modified a std Z, very expensive). Another check is the radiator has to be all aluminum on a Z07, and typically the half shafts will have ZR1 stickers on them.
