Saw a Z06 today....

Went to the Corvette assembly plant/museum in BG today, and saw a Z06 sitting behind the fence, and snapped a few quick pics....

There are actually quite a few Z06's up there. I have seen that silver one, an Orange, Red and Blue one when I was up there last week for the corvette gathering. I sat in the blue one, very nice. Sits just like a regular C6 and the clutch pedal was much softer than I expected. Sounded good when a guy stepped on it a bit. Deeper exhaust than I thought..

I wish I could have driven or rode in it though.. That would have been badass...

Yeah, on the way out, there were several there on that same side of the building, a orange one, a few blue ones and this silver one, the pics I took of them together were all blurry and didn't turn out. I didn't see any being built in the plant though

I see them all over the place around here. Living 20 minutes from GM's proving grounds *might* have something to do with that though.

I just saw a red one on I-94. It was moving along pretty good.

I got to play around with one on power tour, and its very cool, the driver did a couple of fly bys and it actually sounded pretty quiet.
