Thumbs up Round 2...
Okay, lets try this Z06 thing again...

Thanks for everyone's well wishes after the "little" incident I had last month when I left the car show at the Mason Rd/I-10 Frankensteins. Sucks having to start all over but at least I get the chance to do so...

Should be taking delivery tomorrow or monday the latest...

Got some plans for it very soon...

Very nice DJ. I'm surprised that you didn't go a different color route too. Black truck, black SS, black Z06, and now another black Z06, lol? Don't get me wrong, it looks good man! Red, blue or yellow are also badass colors on those cars IMO.

Matteo...I'm a glutten for punishment I know but I can't think of another color I'd be happy with especially if I saw a nasty, clean, shiney black Z pull up next to me. Hard to beat black when taken care of...

I'll give you a shout and we'll go celebrate in the new ride...
