Name: 2006 C6 Z51 007.jpg Views: 540 Size: 67.8 KBJust got my new ride home before more snow started flying. Too bad I need to pack it away till spring, but I had a chance to put 25 miles on it.

Will miss my old ride, 2006 A6, Z51 with 14,000 miles. Lots of smiles from this one but looking forward to more with the new ride.

I bet they were the most enjoyable 25 miles you have ever driven. BTW triple black is gorgeous-especially with chrome wheels and red calipers-nice!!

Yes, please put some miles on it. Winter is rough up there I hear. In NC I can drive 12 months out of the year and I do. I don't want to feel guilty for putting 88,000 miles on my 07 that I traded for my 2015.

Nice car by the way. Enjoy.
