Yea. Got the result I always get...nobody listened.

I doubt I'll be on there. If I got in the way of one of the cameras, it was sure to break.

Before going vette crazy, I would buy a new SS and WS6 almost every year for awhile. I liked them so much that I have a deal made to buy the new Camaro for 2009. I'll take one of each please!!

haha, that's classic. However, when my grandpa bought his 07 Z we were searching the internet trying to get GM to contact us and I ran across a convertible conversion ZO6. I think it was an 07 but it may have been an 06. Anyway, they took an authentic ZO6 and converted it into a convertible. GM didn't do it obviously, it was aftermarket but still interesting to see. Has anybody seen this or know what I'm talking about?
