I have owned my Z06 now for almost half a year and it has cost me...$165 in maintenance. That includes an oil-change I didn't technically need (585 miles I change oil), and a few cans of Clutch fluid as that will get dirty and I am OCD about changing it out every time I drive it (totally unwarranted, but hey, cheap insurance). Oh, and some washer-fluid I need to buy.

Z06 and ZR1 maintenance are identical from what I understand, except regarding maybe oil capacity or something. Not sure.
