Default Going away Party....

Here is a few pics on the way to the dealership....(Zo6 + WRX out CTS-V in)




Put 700 miles on the Zo6 in the last Seven months.... So I figured I would get something I would drive.....! 36 month Smart Buy = A lot of abuse for this poor car...LOL

Sean,

I wish I could say that I am surprised, but when I heard you talking about this idea a couple of months ago I knew it was going to happen. Nice choice in the new car, though!

Enjoy this one, Ken
