Default Got it Friday night

Wow what an Auto.
I put a deposit down sept last year ordered it in may and just got my MY on Friday night.
I am very impressed. 300 mile on it now and have not yet run it up over 4000 rpm Very strong and can only imagine what is in store for me.
When I was very young I had a friend that had a new 63 split window and I can still remember him taking me for a couple of rides. I don't know but I think his was one of the origional z. This 0206 remindes me of the lift and pull that his car had with no where near the shake rattle.

One question sometimes this starts right away and sometimes I have to try twice. no foot on the throttle. ??? is this normal.

the wait does not seem so bad now

Very happy
patiently Waiting "not"

It's a "drive by wire" system, so I don't think your foot position will affect it one way or the other - the computer's gonna do its thing regardless of where your foot is.

Awesome car!!!! You're gonna love it! (Now if I could just figure out how to get the wife to trade... :D )
