Default Finally found it!
I've been looking for a little over a year for THEE car, and I finally found it. Goal was my 33rd birthday gift, but I managed it before my 32nd. Truck got paid off over a year ago and I began the search. Pulled the trigger a little over a week ago on a 2011 z06 3lz in crystal metallic red. I wanted that color to match dad's 63 Impala SS. I've read many threads on this forum before I bought one and look forward to reading more as I enjoy my car. Weather permitting we'll get a pic of our cars together real soon.

Thanks everyone. The car is super clean inside and out. Previous owners seemed to have taken good care of it and I plan to do the same.
