5 Month storage question
I had my ZO6 in storage in my garage for 5 months and just got home. I had it on the battery tender and everything was fine when I started it and drove it this weekend. I just went out for another drive this morning and left the car outside for a few minutes to get something from the garage...when I noticed a small (I thought greenish) liquid on the garage floor. I do not think it was oil. Now after my morning drive, I looked on the street and I dont see any liquid on the street from the car other then water condisation from air conditioning....I just brought the car back in the garage and will look in a few hours but any thoughts?

Definitely not green unless someone bought the old style coolant by mistake. http://autos.aol.com/article/coolant-color/I would agree to just keep an eye on it for a while. If it really is coolant then you may have bigger issues than just a failed water pump.
