Cool Pics of my new Z06 Daily Driver...

*MINT* '01 Zo6 with 43k miles. It has a Blackwing filter and an '06 shifter assembly/****.

I'm gonna lower it tomorrow, and this month install an off-road x-pipe and a small cam/springs, that's it.

It's gonna be chrome/carbon fiber.

The red FRC's are going to be replaced with red carbon fiber, and polish most of the visible metal.

Just kidding. I'm very jealous. Always wanted one just like that, and yours looks clean as hell. Congrats on the pickup and enjoy.

Who needs 'em?

Some horse power junkies use truck manifolds for 900hp turbo build-ups. The Zo6 mani's are like shorty headers anyways, it's just a daily driver.

I want the off road X or H pipe because the '01's had 4 cats. I want to get rid of that crap asap.

Even though I love the Borla Stinger's sound, I'm keeping the factory titanium cat-back. I was floored when I read that in magazines in the year 2000. I wanted a Zo6 so much.

Does anyone know where to get the clear film that's like a bra, but invisible?

The paint is so nice, I want to help it.

Thanks for all the compliments! It took me a month to find this one. I wanted medium miles, 6 speed, mid $20k max... and this is what I ended up with. I feel blessed.
