Default New Vette! *Video*

Just picked up my new addition. 2008 JSB ZR1 replicas, headers, slp exhaust, and wide body.

Drove it from Tempe Arizona back to Colorado. Drive was boring as hell but the car is so nice.

Future plans:
Soon a cam and tinted windshield

Down the road D1 for sure!

Check it out.

New Video

Looks awesome. Got it from a dealership? Are you sensitive about telling us the price? Did you have an f-body before?

Ya it was a smaller dealership called Auto Junction. They have some pretty nice cars including a sexy black lambo for 94k. After taxes it ended up being a little over 26k.

I have my 98 trans am still. ill try and find pics to post as well.

I cant get the video to upload from my camera but here is a few pics of that lambo and my TA. Trans am is lowered on bmr lowering springs, bmr upper and lower a-arms, and konis. 18x10 with 295 BFG G-Force KDW all the way around. Lous short stick and 5.0 short throw and muffler delete. Tuned a few years ago by A.I.R. at 302rwhp. Don't remember the torque.

I actually tried to run a GTO but once I down shifted he laughed and shook his head.

A couple hours later a Pontiac Fiero came cruising up behind me. Couple of younger kids and I let them have it. They came back for more tho haha

Great looking car, congrats!

Can someone school me on the widebody kit? Is it just more aggressive fenders?
