Just thought I'd share a couple pics of my IROC and my GFs Dads 2002 Z06.

and one more.

I'm wondering, but does that look like a Z06 to anyone else. I dont see the rear brake vents, chrome wheels?, and that color.
Not trying start anything, but can someone verify, or maybe some more revealing photos would help.

thats not a Z06

Mark A Shields

Maybe there was some confusion, that's what she told me he got. I also thought the Z06s had Z06 emblems, I didn't see any.

1991tealRSt-topGuy

thats ok, dude

yeah thats just a LS1.................still an AWESOME car by all means!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1982chevycamaroz28

nope just a c5.

Mark A Shields

Here's a rear shot. sorry it was dark out yesterday. It's got the rear brake vents.

StngKlr

Yeah OK, still a bad *** car, all he needs to do now is send it of to Lingenfelter, TTLS1, then blow the doors off a Z06.

Tas

it still doesn't look like a Z06. It doesn't have the screens on the front, it looks like it has T tops, it looks like it doesn't have z06 rims. Need a side shot.

Don't all Vettes have the LS-6 now? I could be wrong, I don't worship them like a lot of others do. No, I don't mean people here either!!

Tas

NO! All vettes but the Z06 have the ls1. The Z06 has the LS6

Yeah, it's a C5, not a Z06--Z06s have specific wheels and brake vents, and they're not available with the targa top.

Still a badass car!

Your car looks better

Mark A Shields

That's the thing, he wanted a convertible, but wanted the Z06, it's a hard top. And it has some pretty huge disc brakes, not sure if that is for all vettes.

Yea, doesn't look like a Z06, but none the less I'd take it anyday over almost any car. Even a regular C5. Those are some of the best looking cars on the road today in my opinion.

zupmanZ28

whats funny is that everyone is saying it's JUST a C5 LS1. Z06 or not, id love to have it, especially if it's a six speed (as if it matters)

It doesn't matter, a vettes a vette and there all too SWEEEEEEEEEETTTT.

Mark A Shields

Yep, it's a 6spd. Another thing, I was just reading in C&D that the Z06 had larger front brakes, and when I was looking at the car yesterday I noticed the front discs were larger than the back. Also the front discs, not sure of the back started to get some rust on them.

"JUST A C5?" HAAHAA.....it probably wasnt meant as a downgrading thing, or at least I hope not. The C5 is a remarkable vehicle in almost, if not all, aspects. As an owner of one, I can say that the LS1 is a very smooth and powerful engine...it pulls in every gear, and at every RPM, it feels like it just wants go faster yet. It is no Z06-but then again, the Z06 uses the same block, if I remember correctly. Just different heads, cam, intake, etc.(dont quote me, I dont have a Z06). But still, the LS1 is an awesome performer...and the C5 is an awesome machine...its alot of fun taking that thing on the road...I can never keep the speed limit Sorry everyone...since I have one, I HAD to say something

LeftTurn1LE

Awesome cars. Z06 has emblems, rear brake vents w/ mesh, hard tops only, LS6, and different wheels than regular C5. Did I leave anything out? Regular C5 still kicks ***. I would buy one if they weren't so damn expensive.

THE C5 IS BIGGER THAN A 3RD GEN!!!!!!??????

whenever i see an open parking space next to a C4 i grab it..........so i can see what the brothers look like next to each other

a C4 is so much smaller than my camaro

the C5 IS big.........

Mark A Shields

That's what I thought when I saw it.

Amrish

DEFINETLY not a z06, there are tons of vettes here on long island, see like 10 a day, and there are 2 near my home....

It doesnt have teh z06 405hp badge, doesnt have the wheels, and the air scoops on the sides....

PhantomTPI

Its too bad I dont have my webpage finished..I have a couple pics of my Trans Am and my C5 next to each other...you could really tell the difference between the two cars...the C5 is definetly wider, and lower than the TA....I still love both of them though....

Mark A Shields

So, how's this for a thread bump, LOL.

silly me thinking back in '02 that was a z06... guess who has a Z06 now tho
