2016 3LZ, Z07 (carbon flash aero/stinger), M7, comp seats … she is slightly differently configured than the grey one was. As far as OEM options I added the satin black aluminum wheels with red stripe and the Jet Black Suede design package. This time I went with the paint matched roof. Then I purchased a visible carbon fibre roof as a second roof. I never understood why the dual roof option wasn’t offered with the combination of painted to match and visible carbon fibre so I created that option on my own.

In addition to all the above, these are the other mods installed on the car during PDI:

- Callaway 757hp/777tq package
- Callaway short throw shifter
- Auxiliary GM radiator.
- Corsa X pipe and Extreme axle back with black tips
- Carbon Flash front fender extensions
- Smoked side markers, turn signals, reflectors
- RPI Designs custom painted black/red fender emblems
- OEM front/rear mud guards
- Stage 3 spats and wickerbill
- Weapon X spacers and Gorilla extended black lug nuts (for street use)
- ZL1addons tow hook receivers
- GSC smoked tail light covers (not installed, still on the fence about them)
- Cargo and license plate led bulbs
- Tint (5% all around, Airblue 80 windshield)
- Front clip, fenders, hood, mirrors, headlights, A pillars, rockers, side skirts, and quarter panels wrapped in 3M Pro and completely coated with Opti-Coat Pro Plus.


Sorry for the cloudy weather pics, I’ll get some better ones soon.

One of the things that was triggering my ocd was how for the Corsa tips stuck out when I had them installed on my previous Z:

So I had them trim about 4mm off of the axle-back pipes where they connect to the X pipe to make the tips sit as flush as the oem ones:

That's all I got:

PS. That’s not a personalized plate btw, it’s just a coinkindinkie that it almost sounds like ‘my z 69’ … dunno what the 3 is all about. :)

cannot wait to see her this weekend if the weather is good. I sure hope that the TTS and the Z play nicely in the garage and the RR does not have to separate them into their own corners.

MAZ 693...

Maz is for Mazda

693 is for MX-3. (Look at your phone keypad to understand the 6m 9x)

It's basically a Mazda MX-3.

Next thread please?

i have said it before and will say it again. The layout of your parking pad in conjunction to the garage, privacy wall and neighbors house makes for amazing exhaust notes

I like the white roof Forsure!! And idk about that exhaust, it doesn't sound like a muscle car, it sounds like a 97 5speed Mazda pickup truck with hole in its exhaust :(

It is a mother trucking SUPER SPORTCAR

to call a vehicle that is now producing numbers that rival the new Mclaren P1 for a 13th the price and 1/3 of the cost of a Galardo i feel it is not accurate at all to cal this a muscle car. His Z28 was a Muscle car but this is in an entirely different league from a muscle car simply based on the lateral Gs that it can pull she is no muscle car.
