Just picked up 03' Z06
I finally got another Vette. I had a black 2000 C5 coupe which I had modded pretty good. My old C5 ran a best 10.7 in the 1/4, but I ended up selling it because I wanted to do the family thing.
I sold it back in 2007 and I missed her very much. Recently, I told my wife I wanted another Vette and planned on getting a C5 Z06 next summer, but my buddy who works at a dealership told me about a Silver 03' Z06 they had come in as a trade. I went and took a look at it and boy was it clean!!! It was a one owner, completely stock, never modified Z06 with 19,053 original miles. My buddy talked to the owner and got it for me for $22K out the door!!
I wasn't in the market just yet, but there was no way I could pass this deal up. Now tonight, thanks to the blessing and love from my awesome wife.. I have another C5 sitting in my garage.
I can't stop walking into the garage to stare at her. Now all I need to do is find a suitable name for her. Pics soon to follow.

Wow, I test drove an '04 with 13k 2 years ago when I was shopping for mine. I just can't understand how you could own something like that and not drive it.
Congrats on the new ride.
