2007 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 for sale in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

$42,900

Corvette Z06, Black with Black 6 speed. 45,500 Miles I’ve been in the exotic car business for over 30 years and I’ll admit I’m an Italian car snob. When you’re surrounded by Ferraris and Lamborghinis you tend to dismiss any thing else as a lesser car. A couple weeks back a customer traded in this Corvette on a Ferrari 360. Now I haven’t read a press release or road test on a Corvette for maybe… well forever. The last time I drove a Corvette was over 20 years ago. That trip was in a 63 roadster that drove like a 63 Impala and that’s not a compliment. I needed to run to the mall on Sunday and figuring (correctly) that the Corvette had the best A/C to battle the South Florida heat, made it the driver du jour. The Vette has a Z06 package which I assumed was GM speak for a decent radio, power windows, and a rock hard suspension, boy was I in for a surprise. Traffic is miserable down here and the only place to really push a car is a highway on ramp. Unfortunately a clogged merge lane and a Blue Kia thwarted my bonzai run plans. It wasn’t until a few miles down the road I got a somewhat clear lane. Down one gear to 5th, depress the throttle and one hundred comes in an instant. Try it again in 4th and it feels like the tires actually broke loose. It may be late in life but I quickly became a Corvette convert. Once at the mall it all came clear; around the license plate was a frame proclaiming Z06 - 505HP. Holly crap, 505HP, I knew there were some high horsepower cars out there but a 505HP Corvette was news to me. It’s no wonder the car was so fast. Shopping suddenly became secondary; playing with 505HP became the order of the day. Unfortunately the traffic on the way home was as bad as the trip there so the low gear acceleration was never tested. Road and Track magazine filled in the blanks, sixty blisters by in a world class 3.6 seconds, a quarter mile is passed in under 12 seconds. The top speed rivals the worlds best at a tick under 200 mph. If that’s not enough to wow you, the Z06 does this while delivering 15 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway! Our Z06 is a one owner car bought new by a Doctor in Miami. The good Doctor had a Ferrari 308 for weekends and the Corvette for every day. He fell for our Emerald Green Ferrari 360 and now we have a Z06. He has taken excellent care of the car with service up to date and receipt for all the work. It is spotlessly clean and damage free. There has been no paint work and there’s none needed. There’s no wheel rash and the interior shows very little wear. It no surprise that the rear tires are getting thin but there’s lots of fun left on them. If you’re thinking about a serious performance car on a budget, this is your car. It’s really fast, drives great, and has menacing good looks that when seen from a rear view mirror will convince even the most ardent left lane hog to get out of the way. Does 2.9% financing peak your interest; we know a guy. Need the car shipped to lower Slobovia; do you want it by boat or plane? Gotta sell that 63 roadster first; let’s talk trade. Pick up the phone right now and give us a call. We do email, but nothing’s better than a call. Motorcar Gallery , MotorcarGallery.com.
