Wow, that's what I like to hear! What location permits you to drive it so much?

10,000 miles in mine and the motor was heavily modded at 4,500 miles. No issues so far......just typing that is tempting fate!

50K here. Just did long tube headers and a tune. This thing (feels) faster than my 2008 Z06 with a Katech torque cam. No mechanical issues. All highway miles. I changed the rear diff (Red Line + additive) every 15K and the oil (Royal Purple) and filter whenever the PCM tells me to. Trans fluid was changed at 20K (Red Line). These are amazing cars!

8500 miles. 2500 were to drive to the BG CamaroFest and run at the NCM track. Rest are mostly driving the 120 mi r/t to Houston MSR (plus track miles), 120 mi r/t to GrandSport (plus track miles) and to the occasional C&C type event. 2014 #059.

Bought my Z28 on 11/10/15. Has 8,000 miles, including 11 track days. Hope to do a bunch of track days in 2017.

Z/284TRK · 01-28-2017, 01:08 AM

Mine has 6636 of race miles with 585rwhp Not one thing wrong with the car other than track rubber and pitted head lamps.

MarkSS · 01-28-2017, 10:44 AM

Mine had some miles on when I got it, but it is just over 20,000 now... third set of tires and had to replace a back-up light, otherwise just the best track car I have driven.

3600 miles: Purchased new last May.

Two tires upon delivery for cracks on the sidewalls.
-Two oil changes.
-Agressive track alignment
-new differential @ 2800 miles. Replaced under warranty (whole new carrier with gears-not rebuilt), car in shop 17 days @ Bomnin Chevrolet in Miami.
-Replacement diff making knocking sound on sharp, slow right turns. Still to be addressed.
-Paint peeled off both engine covers-replaced under warranty.
-Paint peeling off rear bumper diffuser-to be addressed at next shop visit.
-Thumbs up everywhere, everytime I take it out.

Other than that, two track days so far (Homestead, Sebring), three more scheduled (Homestead 2x, Sebring 1x), 3000 street miles and tons of fun for my family (two small kids love riding in the back) Common statement from the back seat after full throttle runs... "do it again, do it again!" (Safety first of coarse!)

Bought w/ 7 miles on 11/27/15. Currently at ~12,200 miles. My only issue... I burn ~ .5 quarts of oil every 2k miles. GM says it's within spec for this engine.
