Default Got a Z06

I have been waiting a long time to finally own one, and I bought this a couple of weeks ago and wanted to say hi to everyone, the weather has been so rotten I haven’t really had a chance to drive it, the first w/e I got it I probably drove like 500 miles but since then Just sitting in garage

Congrats, hopefully soon you will be able to enjoy it. Mine sits in the garage except on weekends when I take it for a cruise. I bought a daily driver to keep the miles down. I have 4400 miles on it now.

Awesome!! Me too! I just got my first Vette and it's the same as yours. I gotta bone stock '02 Z06 quicksilver with all black interior. Now I can wear those Corvette hats and stuff and be legit. Still got the '89 Formula that needs rebuilt. My other GM car is a '99 silverado Z71 5.3L A4.
