Default Greetings from a NewB Z28 owner and a ?

Hello from NE Texas! I am (finally LOL) the proud owner of a white 2001 Z28 6sp., i spent MONTHS researching ths car and was originally gonna buy a LT1 for cost reasons , but i found this one w/35k and still under warranty for 13.5 and i had to get it, so fast and so new,anyway.

i have many questions, but i do knwo how to use the search function!

i have really two that are to general for a search, 1) while white is nice it seems kinda bland on my car, has anyone seen a white and ? color scheme that looked nice and not rice?

and secondly is whats up w/that q-ball gearshift ****!?!

TIA,
semper fi,
shawn

Get us some pics of that beast

I think "hugger" orange stripes on a white Z would look good!.
And WELCOME to the site!!!

thanks alot for the info, i am using the search best i can, 24K dial up sucks for picks. i am excited about this car, last muscle car i had was a 89 LX 5.0, fast, but nothing like this! i am much more into "go" than "show" but it is a sweet ride. i have pics but no way to host/post. also, i did a detail today (all day , to include under the hood area) and found i was low on brake fluid, any suggestions on brand/type. and do i need special tools to replace plugs, besides extensions and the usual?
