If any car is truly meant to be driven it's the Z06!

I bought mine on sept 7th of 01. It had 800 miles on it. My dad and I drove it back home 1000 miles. I just turned over 25K the other day. I drive 4 times a week 62 miles round trip to work.

rear diff leak at 11k

re-ring, tranny work and other side of diff at 20K :(

tranny work again at 22K :mad

Now all is fine. :)

Rear tires are done and need to be replaced.

Front tires still have 4-5K left on them.

Sometimes I ride the GSXR. :yesnod:
