Greetings fellow enthusiasts. A retired Coastie here. After years and years of looking from the outside I’ve decided to add myself to the Z06 race. Any and all advice would be welcomed and appreciated.

Welcome to the Forum!
You did not mention which generation of Z06 you were interested in, but it appears from the wording you are looking at the C8.
If that is the case, I would suggest asking about it in the C8 Z06 discussion area at: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c8-corvette-174/.
Best wishes with your Z06 quest!

Congrats on the commitment. My crystal ball says you're looking at a MY2026 car. I hope you've got something interesting to dive until then. Stay the course, the wait will be worth it.

A C8 Z06 is a challenge even for those waiting three years.
Get a C8 Stingray to start. You can get them quicker and if used, today.
