Hi All. Considering a purchase, but would like advice

Not a fan of the front paint or stripe on the one at Sherwood - not stock. The one at Wheaton seems to have the front splitter and side skirts and the black interior looks great - just my opinion. I bought my 1972 yellow convertible new at Wheaton and was happy with them. Is there any warranty left? if not will they throw in extended warranty?
Go for it - GREAT car.

I didn't know how to spell it either Frank... That was my stab at it...Yes I wrote kal as I didn’t know how to spell it

I see what you mean about that front paint stripe. I had not noticed that. I now like the Wheaton one better. I have to admit, I don’t know what the front splitter and side skirts are (total newb).
If they are carbon fiber they were an extra cost $$$ option on the Z06. Previous owner would have added the at his expense.
Had another look at the pics - doesn't look like carbon fiber but still a very nice upgrade

Yes if he finds a car with a bunch of carbon fibre added... that’s a bonus that the seller will not recover the cost on.
If he likes carbon fibre it’s definitely worth considering as adding it is $$$$$.
Side skirts (rockers) and splitter (front spoiler) are options... and pricey options at that, especially if they are Carbon Fibre (don't think they are)...they both improve the aerodynamics of the car, the rockers also protect the sides from road dirt rash.. and they look sharp on the car..... here's a pic.

Rruuff is pretty talented, if not car pretty
so op your thoughts
so op your thoughts
the stripe on the Sherwood car could easily come off if its decaled ( I would do that but I do like the black treatment on the lower bumper fascia) The front splitter is just a basic plastic one; the term "poverty splitter" that came standard on base z06 ( I have one in the FS section.....lol). IF mechanically both are similar and the Kal interior is not an issue I would still lean to the Sherwood car ( even though I despize this dealership) but it has significantly less mileage. IMHO.............

just having fun,
the splitter and skirts may be carbon flash which to me is just painted black
the carbon fibre we chat about is actually exposed carbon fibre checkerboard pattern in silver and black not just painted, Theron is the difference
also you can get Jake decals from Northgate parts for reasonable if you wish
the journey is fun
and yes Eric I am jealous of your computer skills, my skills or lack there of consisted of passing judgement on cars, not actually doing any work on them. No talent for the hand fitting, just being able to spot flaws or see design features that work
rambling old man thoughts, now to take my meds. Jeff

Nothing special so no need for caps. $44.3kusd is about $59kcnd. I posted cheaper new ones locally in the " c7 costco thread". Then all the hassle of importing unless atlantic city chevrolet is in Quebec. If so im in for 2!!!.......

They say it is a 2lt under their description. Price ok. Here’s another same color velocity yellow 2lt m7 z51 but with kal interior for about the same price but with only 16000km. ( assuming it’s available). Don’t care for either dealership but now you can have them duke it out.
