Default Three Z06 owners (and five C7s) meet up for breakfast!

Hi guys,

Over the weekend, about a dozen of us from C&C Bergen County got together on a less-than-ideal morning for brunch.

Christmas came early for us, as five C7s - including three new Z06s - were there, which created a bit of a spectacle.

I thought some of you might enjoy this, so here is a brief video and some high-resolution photos taken by forum member "Process Black." Enjoy!

Very nice! Thanks! Definitely clear top weather. The stock Z wheels look perfect on the BS Z.

I have to say, the silver z06 looks the best....I really love black but that silver sure shows off the car.

Who's black ZO6 is that on the very end??? I would like to ask him a question about his center caps. Are they standard or was that an option??? Do they have a name??? On the GM build site there are two optional center caps for $200 but there are no photos of what they look like.

My torch red Z06 would have looked nice in the group of beautiful cars. I hope I can make the next one. When I saw the red interior in the Z07 package I knew that was your car. Also your wife wrote a great article and your Pictures were magnificent . Baby soon? Merry Christmas

Love the contrast in the pic that shows the blue C4 with the line of C7's.

This is one problem I have with this car, exclusivity. I hate the fact that I am paying 100k for this car and it's so common. I mean the deliveries started 2 weeks ago and there are 3 of them already in the same NY area!

When I picked up my new M3 (I was #6 in the country to do so for the new model year), I haven't seen a single M3 for over 4 months! And I live right next to Manhattan! Yet I keep seeing Camaros and Corvettes everywhere (not Z06, but I'm sure that will happen too).

How many GT3s do you see or TTS? Heck, I'll say it I know I'll get flamed for it, how many M5s or M6s do you see?

I guess it's a trade off. On one hand, you are getting a bargain, but bargain means it's a bargain for everyone.

When I owned my ZR1 it was very rare that I saw another. Saw Ferrari and Lamborghini more often than ZR1.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe they all traveled from some distance to meet up there? Its not like they live in the same neighborhood or town.

ZR1's the rarest vettes and will remain that way..

And if its news to you that vettes don't offer exclusivity....well then...

Are you kidding me??? Every other car is a BMW! And who can tell the difference between the M class or the regular...Even more, who the hell really cares? Dude, your a clown with a BMW on a Corvette forum. A prime example of somebody who is very lonely and starved for attention.

BTW, you never did tell me what year YOUR BMW is...Its really sharp! Thought I saw one at a used car lot & wanted to buy for my daughter for her 1st car.

I wonder if everyone made a new years resolution to completely ignore bimmer boys posts if he would go away? I am going to from now on.
