A pic of my vette on the way to storage... happy that I got it, but sad that it has to put away until spring... :coolgleam:

Seeing all these pictures of recently purchased Vettes is really getting me excited for spring.

The days are now getting longer and Spring is only a few weeks away. Sadly though these are the toughest weeks to get through.

Nice Car! Love the wheels. I was hoping spring would be here a couple months ago now.

dont seem to see many in red... looks sharp I think!!

Sweet! The C6 model seems to ride a little higher,my imagination?

 

[HLN A55]

isn't yours lowered??

 

[Riley P]

isn't yours lowered??

HA! :agree:

It may not be a C6, but there is a very good set of pictures in the "wheels" thread that shows a C5 Z06 at stock height, lowered on stock bolts, then on C6 and longer bolts. I am amazed how high the original Z rides.

Yes mine is, I was actually comparing my neighbours wifes C6 to his C5. The C6 always seems to have more clearance. And in his opinion the newer Vette seems to be a much better daily driver!

Wow the Z seems to be very high!

 

[C5Howie]

Seems that mine is sitting on longer bolts,I used washers to shim it so it would make it into my garage,by the look of that C5 Z I will go for the stockers and use the lowest adjustment.

 

[Riley P]

For sure. I like how your car looks and would like to have mine that low. I just wish the roads would accommodate such a stance.

I'm pretty sure you can get a c5 that low on stock bolts

What do the stock bolts look like?

 

[HLN A55]

Not sure but take a look around here. "Toque" posted some pics of his c5 stock, lowered on stock bolts and then again on c6 bolts.

The "Wheels" link in post #9 takes you to the pictures Togue took. It's funny how the stock height makes the car look ready to go off road.

 

[C5Howie]

LOL, sorry I mean what do the bolts themselves actually look like?

Very nice Corvette..

Can you post other pictures in other angles?..
