C7 Z06 Owners-Age/Career/Hobbies
Got this idea from the M3 forum which I used to own! This is a fun thread to get to know the general age of C7 Z06 owners, and what they do for their career, and what your hobbies are (besides cars) Hope this is OK to post and is meant for fun!
State your age
State your Career/Job Title and why you enjoy it
State your Vehicle/MOD's
State your hobbies other than Vette's!
1) 28 years old
2) Full Service Car Wash/Detail Regional Manager.
3) 2017 M7 Z06 Bolt On's 754WHP
4)Boating, Shooting/collecting guns, traveling to tropical places!
Thanks,
Garrett

Retired Police Chief. Enjoyed the career, but more so as a Sgt, Lieutenant. Police work was great; Politics, budgets, endless meetings not so great. The guys still come by to complain. I always said, if cops weren't complaining they'd be speachless.
2016 Z06 M7, Mamo PTB, Borla Catless. Also 61 Vette, 65 Vette, 97 Vette and Dodge Viper GTS coupe.
Hobbies: Exercise, weights, boxing, hockey (still skate) baseball, football.
We live on a Lake here on Cape Cod and enjoy boating and everything about lake life. We spend 2 months of the winter on Pine Island in Florida.

Bike commute 3K miles/year, weights, guitar, Salvation Army volunteer (not a bell ringer
