Default Finally got a Z
2002 Z06, silver with red/black interior, 41k, drove about 5 hours to Chicago to pick it up and drive it home. Mods are long tube headers and a CAI that I just installed a couple days ago.















Cant wait to share some happy times with you guys!

Congrats, dude. I love second gear. It's like a roller coaster ride over and over again with line.

Silver looks great with the mod red interior. You didn't waste any time getting the LTs on! LOL Wish I could do the same but broke the bank buying a second set of stock wheels and racing slicks for the road course.

Congrats on the new addition. You are going to love it. This forum is a great place to learn about our cars. The only issue is you'll end up spending quite a bit of money if you spend a lot of time on here. You'll start seeing mods you really like and then it'll get to where you have to have it.
Good luck and start saving for the mods.

Don't forget to do the "DSLR" mod, Mobile Phone pics do not do these cars justice! Enjoy the new ride!
