Default What A Car!!!!!!!!!!!

Picked up my new Z06 last night.What a ride.Absolutely awesome.1st thing you notice is the exhaust sound.Finally a C5 that comes from the factory that sounds like a Vette should sound.It's an interesting experience
to drive this car after driving the '99 for
3 years.I can really appreciate the differences after being so familiar with the basic car.The most noticeable being the power,of course.It pulls like crazy in every gear,even 6th ( which is dead in the standard
C5 ).The next is the handling due to the non
run flat tires and suspension/steering mods.
Can't wait to get on the track.

Where did you buy your Z? Did you order it and if so how long for it to come in. I just ordered one last week and the dealer is hoping to get it in 4 weeks. They are looking to do a dealer trade in the mean time since I stressed I really wanted it before the 10/18 deadline or the deal may be off. They agreed to let me out if it doesn't come in on time. Enjoy that new car...

Agentf1,
I bought it at Reedman's.Car was ordered approx.4 weeks ago.Now they are
saying 8-10 weeks.This is what they told me originally so maybe you'll get
lucky.Whatever,it's worth the wait.
