Default I have done it !

After selling my last two vettes (C5Z and C6Z) to get some money for my business I am finally back!

Since I am located in Germany I now have to wait a couple of weeks until she arrives

I went with a 2012 and 11k miles

Thanks @ all !

I cant explain HOW happy I am

I had to sell my last Z06 after less than 6 month of ownership because I got the opportunity to build a new shop-building and buy a couple of new machines.... I am still sad when I remember that car. That was 2011 and since then my biggest wish was to get back in the vette Scene....

In Germany Corvettes are quiet rare ... You never see a Z06 (not to mention a ZR1)

That car on one of our Autobahns will be great

My shipper said I can expect her late November so enough time to prepare her new home

€dit: Most might have recognized she already has the APR carbon diffusor and a Corsa exhaust - both mods which I wanted to install by myself!

No Chance .... Our Weather is comparable to new york's

As if approx. Nine weeks aren't enough until she arrives. After that she will have to sleep for another 4 Months

But as soon as the First Sun comes Out :

Awesome! Welcome to the club. Needless to say, that thing will certainly turn some heads in Germany, especially when you stomp on the gas.
