Default Aloha from Paradise

Aloha, I'm Mark and I recently picked up an 03 Electron Blue Z06. I like the Vette and am having fun with it so far. I definitely get more looks in my direction now with the Vette than I did in My Camaro SS, the SS was loud and had tons of mods done to it, biggest was a MP112 Maguson supercharger, heads, cam, headers, adjustable Spohn suspension stuff, E-cutout, and more; the Vette is more appreciated around my neighborhood mostly 'cuz it's quieter, and 'cuz it's a Vette. Got some ideas for the Z now, but it's gonna be a long time before I get to do anything to it, mostly 'cuz of the debt I created with the SS. N-e-way just saying hi, and I'll be asking a lot of ???'s in the future for help with my Z.


Laters,

Mark

Welcome to the forum. The Vette to a Camaro (even a supercharged one) is apples to oranges. Enjoy and take care of it.
