Default I'm BACK!!!!

Well I have switched cars like Paris Hilton switched men (that she shoots video tapes with) well, I am ready to settle down now. I picked up an 07 Z51 V Yellow coupe on Saturday.

I have wanted a yellow coupe for so long and I love having it. Here are the specs:
Black\Ebony
It has 7500 miles on it
Z51
1LT
Painted roof
6speed Manual


Well thats about it nothing overly special and not a Z06 but I'm still happy. After having an M3 vert and the new goat it is good to be back in a Vette again. I wanna put a HUD in it one day so we shall see. Anyways I will be back on the forums in full force again. Good to be back...

Thank you, Thank you...

I looked around the car this morning because it just feels different then my 06 A6 did. Of all of the cars I have ever owned (23 but who is counting) this is the first time that I didn't look under the hood at the dealership. My reasoning was because hey it's almost brand new, it has a full warranty, and the dealership is very reputable so I know that would at least look it over. I found it has the Honker and the vararam TB spacer. I can't wait to get home to see what other goodies that I have.
