Just got back from a ride in my buddies 2002 Z06.
They sure have come a long way through the yrs........
With 305 miles, it was too fresh to open up,
but I can tell it is a special car.
It is Black on Black, & the 6 speed sure makes me jealous!
This is off topic, but just wanted to share this.
No, I am not ready to convert. But man are they nice!

Guess I was lucky,
When things started looking bad, I pulled out of the market
That was more than 2000 points ago..
I'm back in now and hoping for a quick recovery..
Then I can start thinking of... well, let me see!! :reddevil

Love em', A local guy has a black/black one. He put a new exhaust, cold air injection, MAF and no cats mods on his. All of that really improved the HP and Torque.

I went to the Museum Celebration in September and they had several you could sit in and startup. The GM rep said, "Rev it up", I did and she said, "No, you really have to rev it up", I did, it sounded great ! It was EB on black.

I get to pick up my 2002 Z06 on 11-13-01 at the Museum. My 62 was lonely so I bought a Z06 to keep it company. I had to wait for 2002 so they would be 40 years apart!
