Hey guys, just saying hi and showing off my new car. I got my Z06 probably about a month ago now and its awesome! Just wish we had warmer weather right now to go and drive it more often. I just installed a Billy Boat Bullet exhaust on here and it sound AMAZING! I have a Vararam intake in the garage waiting to be installed also. Are there any meets around the north end? Look forward to meeting new people around here!

Great looking car you have. I like the chrome wheels. I had a Vararam sitting on my work table when I got my Z06 but after driving the car awhile and learning I could step on the gas while in 2nd gear at 30 MPH and break the rear tires loose on dry pavement I decided I did not need to put the Vararam on.
I painted the rear brake scoops on my car body color as I think it improves the look of the car. I also think my car is a little lower than yours. It looks good but does not have a great ride.
Keep checking on the forum as we have several get togethers during the warmer, dryer months.

VERY NICE,but I am spoiled!! Have had mine since about 2006. I have about 99,000 miles. Still love it! My husband gives me his old Vette when he gets a new one. He had a C6 which he offered me when he got his C7,but I said "no thanks,I love my C5Z"

Welcome to our corner of the forum! Congratulations on the nice ride.

Keep checking in on this forum and you'll see things happening - gatherings, drives, etc. Maybe we'll step up the drives this summer from what we've organized in the past? Maybe get Phil to lead another nice local drive again?

Welcome to our corner of CF I did a photo shoot in that SAME spot this year haha! I'm not sure how E@RTC will pan out this year :/ but we can always do a spring time photo-op like we did this last year, or maybe a north end meet up at Jeffs' Texas BBQ in Marysville again, when thr frigid lets up.

In a couple weeks I'm picking up my 2nd C5Z, 2002 Millennium Yellow with CF Front Lip, Skirts, and Rear Lip. Hawk wheels, Johnny O'Connell Shocks and Sways and only 7600 miles on it. Driving it up from SoCal will add some to that! Ha Ha....I'll have to change the valve springs and add some clear bra to it also....and powder coat the wheels Gloss Black.

E@RTC generally starts in April, Triple X Rootbeer in Issaquah has a Vette meet every summer.
