Default NEW to me C6 LMB 07

Hello everyone,

I was going to purchase a 08 JSB but it was a bit out of my price range and I could never find one locally or at least within 500 miles. So I picked up this 2007 LeMans Blue 3LT w/ 75k miles Automatic 6 Speed w/ paddle shift, heads up display, 2 tone leather interior, and etc. This car runs awesome and just drives perfect.

I used my cell phone instead of my canon camera, next time i'll take some good pictures. Anyways here's what I got in the garage now

She's horrible looking. No one in their right mind would ever buy a LMB with a Cashmere interior.

JK!

I hope you can put as many miles on her as I have!

Lol thanks everyone, yes I tried cleaning the damn exhaust tips with some thinner and it didn't clean up as easy as my trans am tips did.

It will be my daily and when it rains or anything I'll drive my truck.

Yeah that 85 vette in the back is actually my wife's and she races it but it's in hibernation mode right now.

Like this!

The left side was probably 20 thousand miles w/o touching.

Don't let this happen to you.

Bar Keeper's Friend, then Adams Blue, then Pink (all with the power ball wrapped in a rag, then the cone wrapped in a a rag) then Duraglit by hand.

The outside (which was just road crap, not the carbon xxcrap like the inside) was just by hand.


Don't wait that many miles, it's a PITA. But, if you do, use power tools wrapped in old Ts.

LMB is my favorite C6 color. It's a shame 2007 was the last year for it. Congratulations, looks great!

Sweet! Welcome to the LMB club! I picked up a 06 Z51, manual earlier this year and just love the color. Last C6 I had was black, and I so much prefer the blue - seems to fit the lines really well.

Thanks yeah I didn't want to get any other color but lemans blue or jetstream blue but the jsb was a bit out of my price range so I got this one and I'm 100% happy with it!

Headers, exhaust, air intake, and tune are on my list to-do's of course next year cause now I have no money!! Lol
