Default Got a new car today...

Flew to San Antonio this morning and picked up my 2000 FRC! I'll post some better pictures tomorrow after I get it cleaned up. The car is SUPER clean.

2000 FRC
48k miles
HUD
drilled rotors
Hyper Black C6 Z06 wheels




what do you think?

It's nice. You could use some better tires/rims. Maybe you should sale me those! Haha, Just kidding man. That is one very nice car. What a great way to bring in 2008.

Looks good. Only things that i would change is lower it a little bit, and bigger tires for the rears.

Looks great. I like when someone gets a car that only the "real car people" know what it is.

No and that brings up a good point. Someone come buy it!

You know when I bought it I fully intended on lowering it when I got it home, but on the way home I hit a couple spots in the road that made me thankful it wasnt lowered! It would have surely made some nasty noises if it had been. So I'm not sure I want to lower it anymore.

Post up a picture of your car man.

Thanks for the compliments, I'll get some pictures posted up today. I'm looking forward to driving it around, I have some errands to run. Maybe I'll see some of you guys out and about.

Very nice...I'm jealous.

I'm scoping out a 2002 yellow vert right now with only 14K miles.

Congrats on your purchase.

I am seriously considering it. The only bad thing is that I will have to get rid of my T/A and my camaro. I just can't decide if it is worth it. I have always wanted a yellow corvette.

I know someone who would love to take that 69 off of your hands! He even has an air compressor to air up the tires and knows how to get there...

By the way, nice car you picked up man.
