I think we all have one of those hidden in a drawer somewhere. They are all mint. You'll be lucky to get your shipping costs back.

I threw mine in the garbage. Don’t like clutter around the house.

I like the little extras. I got a red one for my car for $25 shipped. It might be worth throwing it up on the forum classifieds to see if anyone wants it.

It is worth about $1500 to you...that is the discount you'll receive at Spring Mountain when you pay only $1000 for a $2500 COS (Corvette Owners School) class that is truly a bucket-list experience. Keep it and go. You'll thank me.

It is worth $0...we all got one, and they are as rare as our cars...not rare.

They might be worth something in the year 2120.

Those are the kind of things that have no real monetary value but are best kept with your car's paperwork for future owners.

I never got one of those. I did get a Corvette Logo'd leather style pouch with a notebook in it. If I wouldn't have already known about the Spring Mountain Course I wouldn't have called Spring Mountain to make my reservation.

I didn't get one with either of my z06's. I got two posters, though. Plus the SM discount offer.

Me being the guy I am, paid full pop for the Ron Fellows school as a test drive. I was not sure I wanted the car. At the school I realized if you are not tracking the car you really have no idea what it is capable of. With that in mind I bought a used car and have done several track days. I have the last one of the year coming up in a couple weeks. Letting that expire is a malfunction in my opinion.

Default c7 z06 gift

My thought is a possible c7 z06 owner who bought the car used and did not have the gift. Many owners like documentation and handbooks like this one.

I bought a 2017 and a 2019 z06, both brand new, me as first owner, and I did not get that gift with either car.

I got 2 of them because I bought 2 Z06's in 2016. I keep them with all the other stuff for the car.

I got the Spring Mountain package collateral but not the leather sleeve when I bought my 2019 Z06. I got the poster a month later.

i suggest either keeping it or pay it forward as a show raffle item.

Yup. There is absolutely no way the performance potential of the C7 can be realized, just driving around on the street.
Some people won't care, one way or the other, if they mostly use their car as a "grocery getter", or a "chick magnet".

I am surprised no C7 Z06 owner did not make an offer on the handbook.
I would sell it for $25.00 including shipping.
I take paypal.

Nobody would want this. It’s just a fancy invitation to spring mountain. It’s like holding onto the menu of your engagement dinner, it’s only special to you and your fiancée.
