    Featured When do you think you will get the Vette out of storage this year?

    I usually get it out in and around 20th of April. It will be a lot latter as I am at my winter home in NZ. They are in lockdown and the first flight out is June 30th if even then. I will just sit and dream about driving it.

    Do I need my throttle body cleaned at 9000 kilometres.

    I just got back from having my Vette serviced. I go to a dealer out of town because my local dealer could not order a Z06. When I got there this morning I asked why they wanted to service my throttle body. The answer I got was that it was a new girl that made the call. He said that he never...

    Thanks to every one who replied. I plan to ask this service dept for a reason why I should do this. I made the appointment when I was having my XT5 serviced. They called me later about the throttle body. I will post their reason Wednesday afternoon.

    Do I need my throttle body cleaned at 9000 kilometres.

    The dealer where I bought my 2016 Z06 phoned me for a service appointment. While on the phone they told me I needed to have my throttle body cleaned. I was informed they had a special on $50 off. I have had other corvettes and this is the first time this has ever been mentioned. Has any body...

    Nice car. Is switching to a pro charger all you did. Those are pretty good numbers.

    Beach hop

    It is left hand drive. There is a few over there that are converted to right hand drive. GM never made a right hand drive vett. The closest they ever came was they shipped a brand new vette to Australia for a show and then did the conversion and sold it instead of shipping it home.

    Beach hop

    March in NZ is like October here. They are opposite to us. The best time to visit NZ is late February or March. Weather is beautiful and the prices to get there are dropping.

    Beach hop

    He will pick it up at end of may. The company that is doing it also do laser etched heat shield for bikes so it will be a nice job. On the positive side I get my vette out of storage today. Thanks for the help.

    Beach hop

    We found two solutions, one was buying them from mid Ohio and the other is a company that well laser cut any design into any type of metal and roll them for you, so you could any kind of custom you like. I think he is going with the later. I just got to go without a bandage on that burn two...

    Beach hop

    For three and a half months each year I live at my home in New Zealand. They have a event there called beach hop. It is a classic cruise on steroids. It lasts four days and is the largest car event in the Southern Hemisphere. I went to first day Wednesday and the big day Saturday. Went in my...

    Z06 2016 CONVERTIBLE, any issues?

    I have a 2016 Z06 roadster. Absolutely no issues except for the pain I have when I have to put it away for the winter.
