I had one for about a week before I found out my insurance wouldn't cover all of my expected medical bills. As much as I liked it, I decided it just wasn't the right time to spend that kind of money on a car. Now, I have my truck and the ability to pay my upcoming medical expenses but I really miss that car.

I can tell you that the '02 Z06 is a freaking rocket on wheels. It'll go from 0 to OH CRAP! faster than you can imagine. Don't ever drive one unless you're ready to buy because it'll be all you can think about if you do.

Were the medical bills expected because you were buying the car or were they incurred previously? :thumbs:

Around the same time that I got the Z06, I found out I have to have surgery and I wanted to be prepared for that. However, it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect new medical bills from having that particular car if you're not careful.   :0

It's also a good thing I got rid of it because it snowed a few days later. A Corvette turns into a snow plow -- if you can get traction.

That Z06 is awesome. 0-60 in 4 seconds, 405 hp, 400 lb ft of torque, almost 1 G cornering.

I think the 1/4 mile times were 12.4 seconds. Sweet ride.
