Default Svt bait 2.0

I finally made the jump to my [affordable] dream car. Here is the new project: a 2002 Electron Blue Z06. 31,000 miles on it. I flew down last weekend to California to pick it up. Picked it up near San Diego, then drove up to Los Angeles to see the sights, and meet up with the PHK crew.

Without further adieu; SVT BAIT 2.0



San Diego International (they lost our luggage)









Pulled off of Highway 101



Hollywood sign in the background



My Dad’s Old Beverly Hills House





La Jolla





Hanging out with PHK







The wifey approves!

For sure! That is in the top 5 things I need to do the car. Don't worry, it will get done. Before that is getting it into Canada, Passing safety etc, taking off the mudflaps, and taking off the windshield banner.

The mudflaps are a nice compliment to the 4x4 stance - must have been part of the package.

I'm shipping it back since it was cheaper, and I got to enjoy the weekend in California. I'm living in Toronto for the summer, but I'll be up in Ottawa every so often. I'll have to show you the new car.
