Been a way from Corvettes for a few years. Now am looking at a 07 Z06. What

IIrc my 04 Z06 had a few known problems, was wondering if the same applied
to the newer years.

Possibly the rear axle chatter issue which sometimes is fixed with an
updated fluid which was recommended in a 01/08 service bulletin. If the
fluid doesn't solve the problem, like it doesn't seem to be in my '08, you
would need the updated clutch pack which apparently eliminates the problem.
There is a lot of good info at Z06Vette.com on this.
