Default Got 'em.

I could be a Corvette salesman. I convinced one of my superiors yesterday to go test drive a '01 Z51 after work, went with him, showed him the good roads here around base. Now he's talking about flying out to Michigan to drive back some ZO6 haha

A very nice supercharged 03 Z06 just went up for sale. Look up perfectlyfrank as the seller. It is posted in the great lakes section. Already comes with plenty of mods too.
