Not to take anything away from Jason and his beautiful car, but I am 26 and was am thinking about a C6Z06. However I was a little worried about fitting in it comfortably (I am 6' 6"), so I bought a CTS-V instead. Again Jason very nice car and congratulations

Pfft. Who really cares anyway. Just a stupid Z06. Must be compensating for something. Who really wants a car that only has two seats?













Just kidding!!! I'm jealous.

Nice car! I saw it on Woodward last night and thought maybe it was a new Katech project car... Are you going to try and drive it year round?

It IS a new Katech project car. The only difference between this and the Camaro is that I own it. I'll only drive it in the summer.

Congrats on the car. It is the same color / options I want. Slowly but surely my day will come. Congrats I bet it feels good to have your first vette and it being the newest Z06. Looks like you have accomplished your goal. Now go out and make it a monster!
