Who has the most miles on their Z/28 ? What are your experiences ?
Now that it is 2017, the Z/28 has been out for a while. I am curious to read who has the most miles on their Z/28 and what has been your issues, non-issues, surprises, recommendations, wear, feelings, etc ...
Note: I have had my black 2015 Z/28 since October with roughly 2K miles and have experienced no issues, only grins from ear to ear.

3700 miles, and the only real issue has been the red paint wearing off the engine covers.

That being said, when cleaning the engine, no cleaning solution on the lettering and do not touch the lettering with a rag and do not hit the lettering with high pressure water.. It is very sensitive.

10,000 miles, only normal wear and tear. I purchased the car new and did a total inspection on the car inside out and under. I did find a few miss routed wires, loose bolt, miss installed clamps, small naggles typical of GM quality.. As far as reliability all is well.

13,000 miles, Issues have been Red Paint on valve covers, Stitching on the Drivers seat shoulder harness strap, Dealer fixed these items under warranty.
Paint damage on the rear quarter panels from the front tires, fixed that with mud flaps on front tires. This is a bad ass ride, gets a lot of attention where ever it goes. been to the track 5 times ran it at the Mojave Magnum 1.5 mile from a standing start 169 mph ran it at the silver state classic in Ely Nevada twice (90 miles open road, top speed 135mph so it gets driven and really no issues |
