Naa, he sold the Turbo car about 2 years ago or so. He's got a red G8 GT now.. and dude, now I hate you.. I want a Z06, but settled for my lil ol Coupe.. already had CAI and Corsa Extreme Cat Back on it when I bought it, saved me time and money... Just ordered my TSP Long Tubes and Xpipe. gonna stay that way until its paid off or I trade up to a Z06... which ever comes 1st...lol.. A lot of the older guys sold their cars or don't get out much down there now, but there is still plenty of them down there.. Duncans pops has the Dark Blue ZR1 on bigs and littles...wouldn't mess with that one, last I knew it was in the 1100 range and chasing the quickest Zr1 in Texas Tittle.. most of my time and money goes into another toy me and my dad have, just an Old 69 Z/28 with a 406..

well I was after two different Z06's, one was a Lingenfelter Car, and the other was a Novi1500 Car.. got beat to the punch both times, and thats how I ended up with mine.. was on the same lot as the Novi car.. but if I come across an 04 LeMans Z06 it might go bye bye.

I lived in Beaumont for a few years and it had a big car scene. I loved the 11th street cruise. Boy ol boy! I shredded some tires there! I have a black LT1 SS clone with a 383. I don't know if anyone ever heart my loud *** car there, but I moved to Clear Lake two years ago.
