I recently sold my Camaro. Well I have been looking at corvettes for a while now and I finally bought me one yesterday. Its a Black 2003 Z06 50th anniversary! Mods are MTI G1 cam, Kooks Longtubes, Kooks X-pipe, Corsa Touring exhaust system, CCW Classics, and Dyno tune. The bitch runs nice and strong and feels much more powerful than my camaro did. It will take a while to get use to my new power to weight ratio! I need to do a good cleanup and detail and straighten out my exhaust tips but here are a few pics! I am really excited!!
