Hello all. I have been a forum member for many years while owning some C3s and a C4 but today I am the proud owner of a 02 EB Z06. I think I'll sleep in the garage tonight.

Welcome to the forum and the Z06 brother(sister)hood!!

I am wondering how you got such a nice photo this time of the year in PA. I am in Cleveland and my car is in Western PA. It is not "put up" for the winter, but so far since the first of the year I have not been able to get it out. Roads were just too bad or it was raining.

In any case enjoy the car. I have had mine for a year (04-MY) and I still have to pinch myself everytime I see it.

I picked the car up yesterday and it was quite sunny although extremely windy. I only had time for a short drive and the picture. Today I took it for a short drive just before it started to snow.
