C8 Z06 Engine Already Blows Up

The car ran great, for about 50 miles… -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buying a first year model car is a very sketchy way to get yourself on the wrong side of some crime scene tape. Typically bugs in the car don’t get fixed until the second or...

ya, I saw people making a stink about it... I say the same here as I did there - price tag doesn't matter, it was designed and made by humans, there will be ****ups.

unless a bunch more pop up it's whatever...not that I'd be happy about it if it was mine but still

I can guarantee, if I bought a C8Z, this would happen to me. I have the worst luck. If it weren't for bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all.

True. Perspective is everything...

It happens. Mechanical things made by humans break; some more than others. If 5% fail at 50 miles then that's a news story.

First, I saw a video of a very, very leaky transmission and now a bad engine at only 52 miles?

Local guy put a supercharger on his and then found out the ecm is locked so he couldn't get it tuned. Was just tooling around one day and the motor started hammering. Sucks to be him, no warranty, obviously, and no motors available any time soon.

Haha, no it made me laugh, your immediate defence of the bow tie. I'm not die hard I own two Fords and a Chevy wouldn't mind a Challenger Hellcat either but I don't have funds like that.

slapping a blower on this car is just moronic, Serves no other purpose than to jerk off online about dyno numbers. Car will either heat soak or spit a rod during a track session
