My new Z06
Hey all, after years of wanting one and years of lurking this board, I finally bought my dream car. I bought about a month ago on my birthday and I have loved every minute of it. It is an 02 Quicksilver with the Mod Red interior (I had to have that). It only had 4500 miles on it when I purchased it so it even feels new. I finally got around to taking some pictures so I thought I would share them. Not sure how to post pictures in my post so I put them up on my website.

Wonderful car, Welcome, Now, Don't ruin it, by driving it in the snow and fresh salted and graveled Streets and hiways.We will see come December
Trust me you will be pissed when you see the chips come spring.
Learned that lesson long ago, Drive it to work,Rain freezes snows 6 inches. Salt and gravel are spread on the street. Before you get off work. You drive 100 miles on that total over the winter. Come spring you will find damage and wear and tear. You have one hell of a ride
that is a spring/summer/fall car.Keep it nice.Mine had 8k last July
when I bought mine.One reason you stay off winter roads is the
glass front and rear is super high priced,specail glass,rear glass is 2800.00 plus tax
Not sure about the front.
Nice pictures. My sn is 106800 where yours is 125223
my build date is 9-01 only differce is I have a 3 instead of the 9
must be for the red interio. Mine is black.
I like your car.
Don't do like you said in your c-5 post about the snow.

Congrats on the new wheels. You've got a beauty! Isn't it nice to come on the forum as an owner and not just an interested party?!
Enjoy...and welcome to the Vette fraternity!
