Hey new C4 owner here in Nashville. I just got one as a graduation present from my dad, and will have the car in hand here shortly. How many guys on here are from the Middle Tennessee area?

[MCV] will probably be doing more this spring as the drag racing season picks up. Hopefully we can do a couple cruises to places this year.

LOL. Very Very stock car. I don't have it hand yet so no pictures. I will work on that ASAP though. Plan for right now is to add a set of ZR1 wheels, maybe a few other odds and ends then just drive it as a daily while my TA is getting the race treatment. I say that now but before you know it the C4 will be in the same boat!!!

Car is a 86 that is either dark red metallic or copper metallic. I haven't seen the car in years b/c my dad lives in Atlanta. It just didn't seem like the DRM to me, and my dads friend said he thought it might be the CM. Doubt it though w/ only 4 made in 86.

As soon as I get pics I will add. Look forward to making it out with you guys on some cruises soon. I will have to get hooked up w/ the music city vette guys too...

If you're needing to get that car back here from Atlanta, I'm actually going down there this weekend. You're more than welcome to hitch a ride with me if you want.

I appreciate it man, but 1) my weekend is booked solid with work and other various events, and 2) I really don't know when I will actually take posession. I graduate in May, but from the way he is talking, it doesn't seem like it will be then when I get it. I hope not at least..

But thanks again...
