They are great cars. Shouldn't have any problem dd'ing it (depending on weather). Only issues the z's really have is the steering lock can freeze up causing u to become stranded and about $1000 out of pocket. However, can be solved in about 10 min by pulling the fuse and freezing it open.

Engines are pretty solid. There were some oil consumption issues way back, but if u have found a car with more than 5000 miles, then its probably past the point of worrying about that. 5th and 6th gear synchros are sometimes prone to failure, but its not very often.

Other than that, these were solid cars that take well to dd'ing and modding. These 3.7's and trannies can handle over 500whp with stock internals. Also, with light bolt ons, such as exhaust,.intake, tune, etc.., u can get another 40-50whp pretty easily. After coming from the vette, the interior quality will be miles above what you're used to. If i were u, i would search for a z with the sport package, at a minimum. That way u can enjoy the lsd and bigger breaks.
