Well after owning a '94Z28, '98 NBM T/A, and most recently a red '99 T/A I've finally bought my first vette. It's a 2002 with 27K miles plus I got a 3year/24K mile bumper to bumper GM extended warranty. I can't get over how agile this thing is and the gearing is so much better than the f-bod tranny. I think the T/A had a better rush up above 4500 rpms (it was 427 RWHP/380RWTQ) but the vette pulls just as hard or harder below 4500 that I think they're probably about even in the 1/4. The weight and gears make a huge difference. Anyways, I'll always love the F-bod and here's some pics:

Beautiful. I would love to have one of those, and I would probably trade my car for one......

ur gonna hate me for saying this, but damn that thing needs to be lowered

That's okay b/c I totally agree. I can lower it about 3/4" using the stock bolts for free so I'll try that and see if it's good enough.

^^yeah, good thinking, I am sure it will be an improvment over how it is now....and don't worry, I have needed to lower my car ever since I bought it, and still have not done it

Good looking Z06, any plans on the mods? I have wanted a Z06 since I drove my friend's one. Vettes feel so much sportier than f-bodys do.

Looking great! I actually went from Vette to F-body (because I wanted more than 2 seats!).

Congrats on the upgrade...I did the same thing about 2 years ago.

Be prepared to have a soft spot for your old TA though

Nice score on the new car. I just picked up a 2002 EB Z06 in October as well. I actually found mine on eBay, after having my eyes on them for awhile. It was just luck that I came upon mine, 30K miles, everything I wanted. And it was local so I went and checked it out. Ended up buying it that week. Right place at the right time is huge in finding one of these.

It's definitely a sweet upgrade. The handling on these cars is ridiculous! The Electron Blue is such a sexy color.
