Finally pulled the trigger
I have been debating for months now on buying a used ZO6 or a new GS. Finally made my decision based off of a couple of factors. I don't think I will ever use over 500hp, spent time in Germany and had a blast, but will not be going back. Also, wanted to be able to take the top off and love the look of the hard top, just something sexy about the roof line. On top of that, a full warranty and no worries with out paying anything extra. So..... with that said, thaks Tommy at MacMulkin for a great deal on a 2012 that I ordered. Will pick it up when I get back from Afghanistan and drive back to Fort Drum.

You'll love the GS, great car. I think you'll find it's closer to the ZO6 than you might think, even with the automatic. Being a DD, if that works for you, it's all good, I plan on tracking mine so I did the manual, love the car. Good luck and enjoy!!
