2005 Corvette, 6-speed, Z51, black interior, navigation, heads up display, fully loaded.

Feels just as fast if not faster than my 350 whp evo did, bone stock!

love it so far, needs an exhaust asap though, wayyy too quiet bone stock. Hope to get it on the road course this year for sure.

Haha, not exactly. I was having a hard time finding a 6 speed Z51 car anywhere under 30k. The wife and i flew to San Diego Thursday and drove it back. Just got back this afternoon, hell of a road trip. I did find out it gets 28 mpg at 90 mph cruise through New Mexico, lol.

Love that color, do you know the name by chance? Sharp car, any plans beyond exhaust or is it staying mostly stock?

Easily hands down the BEST color to have for one of the c6's. I love it!

I thought it was called Daytona Sunset Orange? Great car! It too makes about 350-360RWHP in its stock trim.

I think you're right on the color, its Daytona Sunset Orange Metalic.

I hope to get an exhaust, vararam and a tune this summer. Tom do you still do tuning at west bend dyno?

And Jim, i did drive a 138 ft-lb civic between the evo and this so it's quite a change, feels good to be back!

Yep, sure do! that Vararam snake charmer will provide your most bang for the buck short of a cam. Tuning will not provide a ton of peak power gain, but will supply a shit ton of torque and power under the curve comes from the tuning.

You'll love that thing! Hell the one on my goat is a great piece. I'm assuming this C6 is a LS2?
