Bought a new 2019 Corvette Grand Sport, with a MANUAL TRANSMISSION, and it’s a great car! Huge power, fantastic handling, and with the magnetic ride control, the car goes from track stiff to cruising smooth in an instant. My wife even asks when we can go for drives in the Grand Sport, and that rarely happens with my NSX. Buy one, if at all possible, life is short.

Gosh, I really like the Z06. I currently own a Hellcat and while it's my dream car, at some point I will have to get another car and will really suck to be getting cars with less hp, lol (first World problems) but i would happily go for a Z06. Mostly likely used as new is still costly. I got my Hellcat used with only 1059 miles on it, so you can find gems on any car you want if you reserarch and look carefully.

I wonder why no mention is made, in most of these reviews, of the overheating issue that everyone is saying these Z-cars experience after only a few full blast laps at the track? All feedback that was ever given at the rollout of the 2015 Z06 by all the journalists was praise. That is fine, but I would've liked to hear the cons of tracking the car too. I wonder if Chevy either only let everyone spin 1-2 laps at most or just brought a fleet of Z06s so that no one would see the heat-soak issue in any particular car? I am a new owner of a very gently used low-mile 2016 Z06 and am already pre-emptively planning. I'm already looking at the GMPP auxiliary radiator, and/or a bigger full size radiator, and/or a replacement Magnuson 2.4L S/C, all down the road.

The GTR loses value faster anyways, why would you buy a GTR when a Z28 is faster? The 2012 GTR 2.7 sec 0-60 but like 11.3 QM, 2015 GTR nismo 0-60 2.9 sec QM 11.1 price 150K new 2015 zo6 78K-120K.

This mouse got some 21 century steroids where the baby mouse gets 1.4 hp per cu in. and the mouse with the leaf blower comes in just under 2 hp per cu in. and they both have manners. They start cold and idle smoothly and step out on the open road and threaten 30 miles to the gallon all day long. And if you so desire, will scare the livin shit out of any rational human being with half a brain. I guess super mouse and mighty mouse are one in the same now.

Lol. There weren't issues with blown engines with the C7 Z06s. The C6 Z06 LS7 engine had the blown engine problem by dropping valves. As for the C7 Z06 overheating issue that was overblown. It mainly happened with some 2015 & 2016 Z06s w/automatics which were tracked. There wasn't an overheating issue on the street. GM modified the supercharger lid & intercooler brick orientation on the Z06s starting with the 2017 models. GM also made this change - "In addition, for manual transmissions, we have adapted the horizontal, “lay down” cooler used to remove heat from the automatic transmission for additional cooling in the engine coolant circuit."
