Default First Vette!!
Technically locked this puppy up on the 9th, but I'm very superstitious so I been reluctant to post until I got her in my grubby hands. So it finally made it here to and I wasn't sure to post here or Z06 forum lol.

I nabbed this '16 Z06, Admiral Blue, 2LZ, M7, for an insane 20% off from the best Corvette dealer in the nation, MacMulkin.. with the help of Tommy Jr, Mark, Jessy, Sierra, and the whole crew!

This is my first Corvette.. and never in a million years thought it would EVER be a Z. My original plan was to get museum delivery on a '17 Grand Sport but the deal on this one made it such a no brainer. Damn near equal in price!

Gonna have to change my screen name now lol.

Thank you MacMulkin, Tommy Jr, Mark, Jessy, Sierra and everyone who made it possible..

At MacMulkin


Now here...that's Nate the Intercity guy

Damn, that is a hot color combo. Sexy Z.

Get some side skirts and splash guards on it asap to protect the rear fender flares from stone chips.

Congrats. Smokin' hot Z on a smokin' hot deal.
