Default Thanks!

Thanks to everyone on the C5Z06 forum for all the tips, great group purchases, ideas, etc. I just traded my C5 Z06 in today and I'm waiting for my C6 Z51 coupe. My Z06 was the best and most fun car I ever owned in my life. I had 4 years of big grins and 77,000 miles of fun!

The people on this forum helped answer simple little questions to big ones and came up with answers I never imagined.

I must admit the best tip I got when I got my Z a little over 4 years ago was to put on Borla Quad Stingers. I added a Blackwing and carbon fiber air bridge. Even today during my last ride people were talking to me in traffic saying how much they loved the sound of my car.

My car is being sold to a client of a supporting vendor
http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com/ who is going to turn it into a race car. I can't wait to see it's progress on the web site.

Thanks again to all. I'm now hooked on Corvettes. My second one is getting built in about 3 weeks.

Regards,

After you get the C6 Z51 and drive it for awhile please post a totally objective comparison here between the C5Z and the C6 Z51. And don't be a stranger.

Will do, but after I put on my chrome C6 Z06 wheels and an exhaust. Probably Corsa Sport.
