Default Finally took some Pics!

So, I finally bought a decent Camera and took some pictures of my newly acquired 2002 QuickSilver ZO6. It had 68,000 miles on it when I bought it, but it was indistinguishable from new and whoever owned it before me must have been one fussy son of a bitch because every one of my friend who have been in the car cannot believe it isn't brand new. Couple of good pics in this lot and a couple of semi-artistic ones as well as some good close ups of the badges. LOVING the car... better than I ever thought it would be.. Now for some mods.

For a Z06 w/68,000 miles on the clock, it looks damn good.
