Default Little Cars & Coffee gathering(starring JoeyG in the ultimate sleeper!)

Quick wipe down before heading up to my friend Nick's(b16gsr)parents...



































Also finally got to hang out with a long time forum friend in person. JoeyG! Great guy and a crowd pleaser in what Nick dubbed "The Ultimate Sleeper"
Hopefully Joey will pop in and correct me if I misspeak. But IIRC, 78mm Precision turbo in a 5.3L...



And finally... Please excuse my giddiness at the end of the Video! click the thumbnail!

Viper looks good (they all look good), but my favorite is the black corvette with the wide rear wheel arches, side pipes, and cowl hood....looks so menacing.

Thanks my man. Nick's Black Beaut is just perfect. Wish you were out this way so we could gander at that sexy blue ride you've put together! Hope you're well buddy. Drop me a text if you still have my number... Your # didn't transfer to my new phone:/

Thanks folks! I hadn't seen the new Viper in person but I LOVE the subtle curves in the body ala GTS of old and like you those side pipes! From what I have heard and read there hasn't been much tinkering with the software to massage the performance of this gen but if that opens up... PHEW. Maybe they have already for all I know. Instant classic imo

Apologize to Superman for me I think standing outside taking pics into the Man Cave the sunlight played with the camera a bit... But thanks for having me and I expect before long the terraces will be loaded with cars too! By spring
