On order finally, too long
Well I officially ordered my C6 yesterday. I had dropped off a build sheet last Friday but I finished up yesterday. What a relief to know my vettelessness will end soon. 
Dealer says on their next allocation and should be around 6 weeks.
I sold my 03 C5 Coupe last spring and was waiting for finances, then I decided to wait a little longer for chrome wheels. But finally I have one on the way.
06 C6 Coupe A6, Z51, chrome wheels, black with red Interior. Very similar in appearance to my C5.
Now I am working on a project to mod some painted OEM front wheels so I have a nice set of drag radials. I plan to mod the intake and exhaust with a vararam and long tube headers, cats, and a cat back. Shooting for a twelve flat, may need a high stall TC for that, we will see.
I think I am going with jet hot coated Kooks but I am not sure on the cat back. Vararam was very good for me in the C5 so I am going that route again. I think right now some of the headers and cat backs may not fit an A6, not sure, any imput on that would be appriciated also.
I am a typical CF member. Like to race, like to mod, not a weekend but I am a fair weather driver.
I have been hanging out off and on in the C6 section to learn about the car. Anyway's there is my hello announcement to the forum.

I may try hitting some races with the guys in the drag race section, corvette challenge a few times. I went and watched one last year and enjoyed it. I think I would like the racing.
Well my son and I have missed racing. I tried racing my pick up truck in the truck bracket but just did not do it for me.

Has anyone seen EB20003 around lately? I need to give him a shout.
He is an old pal from the C5 forum. He was instrumental in leaning me toward the C6. He has an orange coupe. Initially I was looking at FRC's and Z06's. But his accolades on the C6 were persuasive.
