First experience in a Z06!

Last night I went out with a few friends for dinner. My buddy Kyle rode with me since he's never ridden in a Z or any other Vette for that matter. As we were leaving the restaurant I tossed him the keys and said, "Wanna drive?" He was buckled in the driver's seat before I could finish asking. Now, for a little background, Kyle just sold his bolt-on 6 speed SS Camaro a few months ago and has been regretting it. After about a 20 min. drive around he was all grins and wants to go out and get another LSx car immediately. Doesn't think he can afford a Vette though.

These cars are addicting!
