Here's a pic of the '03 Z06 I imported into Canada this week. Came from Florida, bought it on Ebay (call me crazy). Turns out it is exactly as advertised, no surprises so far. 59k miles. Now my '95 has something to keep it company for the winter.

Yeah, I gotta make sure the windshield washer fluid and anti-freeze are up to par. Probably be the first time it'll see below freezing temperatures.

I got it for $26,900 USD, worked out to $26,400 Canadian. It cost me $1600 to get it shipped, cleared at the border, and registered here in Canada. So $28,000 Cdn dollars or so. Need some minor repairs but overall it's pretty clean.
