Default New Blacked Out Widebody

So about 2 weeks ago I picked up my 'newtome' C6. Quick run down..

Stock drivetrain, GS widebody w/ black Z06 wheels. Grand Sport brakes w/ Z06 rotors. Fully optioned car, NAV, XM, dual powered sport heat seats, telescoping wheel, memory, bose, etc. I think the only thing it didn't have was the Z51 package. 74k miles now.

I also own a black Cobra [full blown carb'd race car] and an Infiniti G35 [old DD going up for sale]. I was searching between a C6 or a Viper, and since this is to be a DD and I'm still in college, I went with the C6.

I'm extremely impressed and very satisfied. Even with the terrible 2.73 gears it has enough low end torque to do what I ask it to do. It also just hugsss the road and very easy to drive. Anyways... I'll shut up and here are pictures.







I couldn't help myself when I went to go register the car...





I also could not absolutely resist the urge to tinker with it, already swapped out the door panels to double leather stitched 4LT style



I added an AUX port today and this week when it comes in, I'll have bluetooth added.

Ordered a brand new LS3 intake manifold, rails, and injectors. Plan is to do a LS3 top end swap, fly cut pistons, cam, C5R timing chain, stall, exhaust, gears oh and TINTTT ASAP then call it a day.

Just to go ahead and share.. this is my fun car.



Machine work just finished up for the new motor. 14:1 compression pistons for nitrous, wet sleeved by Pro Line Racing, 3.800" stroker crank, 10pt cage, 4.56 gears, full spool, fuel cell, blahblah ~2700lbs.

Anyways, I already hate all you guys for all the money I have not spent yet! This site is full of gorgeous and badass rides.

Thanks a lot guys!

Got the car finally tinted and I can see how badly it needed that tint! In fact, I'm taking it back next weekend to get 50% on the front windshield.
