Well, thats the price for a naked Z06. But all that have been sold in Sweden are fully packed. So the acctual price is between 815.000 -- 820.000 kr. I paid 817.000 kr. Still cheap considering what you are getting.

I know the owners of one red and one black Z06 around Gothenburg. The red one will be equiped with a supercharger. That's a bit crazy as the supercharger have been known to blow a cylinder due to the engines high compression. In my opinion a better tune is to install a cam, headers and a new air intake and filter. Voila.....You will get upp to around 700 bhp.

An hour ago I saw a yellow one in town, it was a convertible. Stod beside it and checked it out. Neither ugly, nor spectacular in design. I'm simply not sold on it, not my cup of tea. I guess I am a 911 fan after all.

Nope, no such thing as a Z06 convertible. If you where interested in cars you should be able to know the difference between a regular C6 and a Z06.

The owner of the red Z06 is also the owner of the Viper. The Viper has been equipped with a supercharger so I will not stand a chance.

Lol, I'm a bigger car fan than you think but I ain't an expert when it comes to chevys, Buicks, Impallas and Doge pick ups.
