Default Quick ZO6 story.

I just thought I'd share this with you guys. My Z has been covered in the garage for about a month. I got off work early yesterday, rolled her out in the drive way and detailed for a few hours. Then I took the car on a cruise at dusk around downtown Fort Worth and I've gotta say.... I have never been so attached to a car in all my life. The C5 ZO6 is such a joy and I don't see myself ever letting her go. Anything negative that is on my mind just melts away when I drive the car. I love it. Best bang for the buck on earth.

2002 Quicksilver/mod red, 18K miles.

Cheers guys!

I agree sure fun to drive but I had a few choice words trying to install a set of Kooks headers yesterday. Finally got them on but man not an easy task.
