Default My Z06/Z07 with the Carbon Package is finally home!

A big Thank You! to Tim at Boardwalk Chevrolet for all his help! He is a great guy and awesome to work with. My baby rolled out of the enclosed trailer late yesterday afternoon so I haven't had a chance to drive her more than just to the house and in the garage, but can't wait to get her out this weekend!

They couldn't get the car hauler on my street (I live at the end of cul-d-sac). It's ok, I got lots of attention this way ...2 Z's pulled in the parking lot as they were unloading!

Love that color and love the fact that the brake calipers aren't blue like the ZR1 - those wheels/calipers look great with this color! I'm officially jealous - congrats!
