Holy Cow! Thanks to a couple forum members, I'm back. Very impressed so far
 
I haven't had a vette since 2010 and eight days ago I saw a beautiful 2019 Sebring Orange Z06 M7 listed in the for sale section. My wife saw what I was looking at and said you should just get it. I was surprised but she knows how much I enjoyed my last one. So, I'm back and very impressed with the improvements GM has made. I know everything isn't perfect and there have been various issues, but I look forward to getting back on track at VIR with my buddies. I have LOTS of reading to catch up on with this forum. Also, lucky for me, I picked up a beautiful set of Forgeline wheels from a forum member to put on the car so I can save the cup tires for the track. Still grinning from the ride home today :D

Made the wife drive my Mustang GT home 3 hours (she hates it...lol):

Made it home after 3 hours of driving. More comfortable than I expected:

New wheels from a generous forum member. I love the Forgeline VX1's. They should go nicely with the orange:

Congrats, I was following that thread in the for sale area. That's a beautiful Z. And those rims are my favorite from Forgeline. You really scored on both deals. :party:

Great car and congrats! I seriously almost bought it myself, it was everything I wanted except the brakes. Hope to see you at VIR. A bunch of us are going March 24/25.

Thanks fellas. The car is in perfect condition and still has the new car smell. Not one scratch on it and it has a clear bra covering the whole car. The installer did a fantastic job. I was very pleased with the sale....and I'm pretty ocd by nature. My bank account is going to hate me this year. :sad:

I, too, was enjoying watching that car. I would have bought it but for having purchased a new Z just a couple of weeks earlier.

Congratulations!

Congratulations on all accounts! My favorite wheels as well. Same as on my C7R! Enjoy

Congrats. Beautiful Z06 and it looks like you scored two great deals. The Forgelines will transform your car both in performance and looks.
