Default Look what I got to do today!
Friend of mine brough his 08 LS3 Z51 coupe over for an oil change









He let me take it for a spin and Wow that thing is fast!!! HUGE difference from my C5!

No doubt it should feel faster - if both are stock, he's pushing between 85-91 hp more than yours. Nice couple of Vettes too.

Good chance GM will be moving them with 0% financing come summer to make room for the C7 on the lots! That's the deal that got me my C5 vert in the summer of 2004.
