Hello, bought my C6 in December, it’s a base 3lt in CRM I love it, Iv already bought TSP stage 4 “f-35” cam, prc heads, valve train and all that supporting stuff. Hoping to make 500whp with all that and a tune of course. Gonna be adding a 150 shot of N2O as well soon!

Not a super huge fan on the mixed interior myself but it’s growing on me, I couldn’t pass up the deal I got on it either.

:ok_01:

Looks like you are going to need to make room in your garage for the new member of the family. :hehehe:

Oh yeah, absolutely, these pictures are old, from December old, I left the car in Florida the weekend after I bought it because I currently reside in Colorado until I ets from active duty. She’s safe and secured

How many smiles per gallon are you getting when you drive it? :peelout 1:

micahmcclelland 05-12-2019 03:22 PM

All of them haha, I only got to drive it about 5 days total since I bought it. I bought it on leave and left it home since I didn’t have that much time left in Colorado

Shame i am scared to buy a C7 with all the A8 probs. This is why i bought a 2013 C6 2 years ago and did headers and a tune.

micahmcclelland 05-12-2019 06:08 PM

If I would have been able to find a manual c7 in my price range I woulda scooped one up, I’m just young and poor for now. I love my c6 don’t get me wrong but the c7 body style and interior are another level

Yeah, I hear that. Overheating problems with the Z06 model, too, and now I have heard about problems with the wheels cracking. Seems like "quality" isn't as high of a priority with Chevrolet as it should be.

Doesn't bode well for the C8, I guess. :shrug01:

I have a out of round wheel on my C6. My Pilot SPORT AS+3 tires in the back just lost their grip like over nite. 7000 miles and they are done. Getting them replaced soon.

I am WOT at every lite so not the tires fault.
