Default ZR1 came in today..

Just got it this morning. I had it tinted, lowered it a bit so far. I really drives nice. Much smoother than my ZO6. I hate the wheels, I told the Dealer to order every option so he got the chrome wheels too. They will be replaced for sure..

Looks beautiful, I love that you already lowered and tinted it, no surprise there!

Be sure to give us detailed impressions when you have more time. I agree with you on the wheels, can't wait to see it with some HREs or CCWs.

Could I have first option to buy your factory wheels and tires? I have a black 07 Z06 they would look better on than my OEM chrome 5 spoke (really 10 spoke) wheels.

Best color by far...Congrats SW...looking for a replacement myself after the little mishap. Was good seeing ya at the Mile and once again, freakin' amazing pass at 241 and change...!! Incredible.

PM me on how you like it compared to the Z06's...wondering if I should take the plunge or stay with another Z06. Thanks, Dennis

Congrats SW. Another nice pony for the stable. What is getting kicked out of the garage to fit her in?

Any more pics of the garage....... Or what I like to call Heaven?

SW - you are the MAN.. a true car nut and not a badge *****.
I'm sure your presence and owner comments on GTR/ZR1/M5/Mustang/Camaro internet car boards throw their narrow minded "loyalists" into fits of mental paralysis.
