    What a fantastic car! Big kudos on a terrific build. Ride height? Perfect. Wheel offset? Perfect. Exhaust? Umm, what's better than perfect? It is *so* easy to get the exhaust wrong behind a 6.2. This, by far, is the best I've ever heard. I'll take this over a $$$$ Akropovic 100 times out of 100. My only gripe - if I may - is that the center stack deserves better than a universal-fit kit for the stereo. What a stunning machine!

    I've had at least one C4, C5, C6 and C7 (currently on my second C6 Z06) and the only one I actually miss, and REALLY miss, is my 2003 Z06. I know the interior was crap and all that but the car just felt so much more light and nimble than the C6 and C7 models (I've driven a C8 but just a few minutes). I did a mild build on my 2003, taking the LS6 up to 474whp, and it was the perfect daily driver. This one is a beauty. Stay safe everyone. Cheers from Florida.
