Yea that's not so tough as some would want you to think. I don't know anyone with a stock C5 Z06 any more.

And there's always this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=xedceV3lq...h=ultima%20gtr

Not really fair as you're comparing a tube chassis from what used to be a race car with a fiber glass body on it and nothing in it that doesn't revolve around going fast - but, hey, that's what some of us are looking for.

Nice job!! I would go out and buy one but about 60% of my checks are going Into Stocks, Mutual funds, & my Roth IRA. I figure I might as well sacrifice now for later on In life. I would still have to take out a loan though, I don't have $75K laying around
*Best of luck with your new Z06...A Z Is a Z so you can post wherever you want Congrats
