Amazing Car

2009 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 2dr Coupe (7.0L 8cyl 6M)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful

This is easily the finest car I have ever owned. Much better overall than my previous Porsche 911 or my Acura NSX. I absolutely cannot imagine another car being any more invigorating to drive. I am tall and I fit inside this car much better than the others as well. My only complaint is the lack of 6 way adjustable seats (I like more lumbar support).

This C6 was the therapy I’ve searched for!

Having owned a C4 I my past, I was excited to get behind the wheel and see what’s changed. I found out fast what Chevy has been up to. Now Understand this is my Toy at 63 but that LS3 stock is all I will ever need. The automatic convertible would have been a deal breaker without. The HUD was just a cherry on top. I’m very happy with my purchase. She loves to drink the premium gas for sure but she’s also a garage queen except for select days when it calls for Country road excursion.

3rd Corvette, the best one yet

I have always had a love affair with the Corvette. My 2002 was an computer nightmare, lots of electronics problems. I then moved up to a 2006, much improved but I had some quality issues. 3500 miles on my 2009. It is so much better than my 2006. I now can say this car has improved and perfected. I am impressed with how quiet and tight just a real solid car. 100% the most bang for the buck. 430 hp for $43,000 I win.

All an individual has to do is test drive a current vette in any form to measure it up versus the other brands in it's class and the value is so remarkably apparent.Purchased a 'o8zo6 coupe and the bug of exhilaration hit me during the few thousand miles I put on it. I traded it in after six months as if the 505hp.7.0ltr didn't suffice. Had to go for a 580hp.t-top cyber-grey 6spd. callaway-vette with a super-charged 6.3l(LS3)Also, add the lightest road wheel available,some oversized brakes,short-throw shifter,sport seat package and multi-pro suspension system. You have a vehicle that equals the ZR1 in the quarter mile and is warrantied 3yrs/36000mile powertrain for much less dinero.

Great Machine

Bought my 09 Cyber Gray coupe three weeks ago. Equipped with 3LT, Z51, NPP, 6 sp, 2 tone ebony/titanium interior and forged polished wheels - this car is very fast and refined compared to my C5 ZO6. Fantastic engine -torque like a train and always just a toe tap away. Clutch is very smooth and shifter is much more refined. Interior is more polished than past generations. Car is very quiet and smooth inside without tire rumble. In fact, I could stand to hear that beautiful exhaust of the NPP all the time rather than just above 3500rpm (where is that fuse?). Absolutely a great ride and a best buy compared to the other vehicles in its class.

What a ride

This is my 2nd Vette and this lady is not only good looking but fast & fun to drive. I also have a 99 and love the change in headlights on this one. The paddle shift provides a real sporty feel to an already sporty car. After siting in one at a car show this year, I am looking forward to spring when I can really enjoy the removable top and the awesome Bose sound system. I had a creaking noise when first purchsed but thanks to a service bulletin it was due to unlubricated roof panel latches. The dealer took care of it and I am a very satisfied driver. This car has a noticeable power increase vs my 99 and the cyber grey was a fantastic choice

C6 was my Goldilocks "just right" Vette...

My 2009 C6 is a great car...I traded my 2004 C5 in for a 2016 C7, with much hesitation, because the C5 was such a versatile, reliable and beautiful car, but I was ready for something newer. The C7 was a very good car, but the interior was just a little too tight for my 6'2" 275 pound frame, so I sold it after a year. I decided on the C6 because it has the power, ride and handling to allow me to enjoy long drives in comfort while still having the cool Corvette style. My commute to work is 120 miles round trip everyday, and I enjoy every minute in the driver's seat. I have a cyber gray coupe that I call my "Executive Corvette" because it is so understated and refined, but it's still a beast. 2009 Corvette is a great car and I give it two thumbs up as the best overall Vette I've had (the C5 is a close 2nd) and this is my 6th Corvette.

Awesome Track Car

My 2009 Z06 has been disassembled, stripped of unnecessary stuff like A/C, nav, radio, etc, etc. Then we built the suspension from the ground up, the frame has been reinforced, added a full cage, fire bottle and 5 nozzles, the engine has improved intake, long tube headers, short mufflers, huge oil cooler / pump, custom cold air intake and a Tune. 521 hp at the rear wheels, 560 ft lbs torque. Weighs, 3050 pounds. It is an AWESOME well handing, neutral handling great stopping and pretty quick accelerating car. Stays with new GT-3's and will actually pass many of them in the corners!
