This is as pretty a car as one could ever hope to own. The exterior lines are great and the interior is beautiful. It is fun to drive and a pleasure to just look at. The fit is perfect for all body parts and both the soft and hard tops. If you are considering a Z8, be sure you get all the original accessories. You might also ask that the Performance Kit be installed. Reputable dealers would know the part and understand why you would want it. Update 08/2017: Still loving this car. Entered it in a car show in Carmel last week. Other cars included five Ferraris and several Porsches including a 911-50. Our Z8 won Best in Show. It was the most admired car on the street. Update 02/2018: No change in my admiration for this car. It seems to be ticking up in value too. Update 02/2019: Still a terrific car to own and drive.

The Z8 is Not Enough

This car is awesome. It is truly a drivable work of art with performance that is almost scary. The Z8 is the best looking car on the road today and at 0-60 in about 4.5 seconds, a car that will blow away nearly everyone else off the road. And while this car is a dream to drive, it is not perfect. The radio/navigation system is too complex. There is a lot of plastic on and in the car (but it looks great). Sure, the speedo and tach are at the center of the dash....and it takes a little getting used to. But once you do, this quirk only adds to its uniqueness.

Each time I get into my 2001 Z7 I smile. It is so much fun to drive and the clean simple interior is soothing on the eyes. Passerby having been taking pictures, waving, and giving thumbs up for 20 years. It is an ambassador of happiness and goodwill. I will never sell it.
