Badass! Looks similar to Tony's old c6.

I knew I shouldn't have put my car up on jackstands during the storm.

the ss had 107,246 miles when it flooded, btw the engine never completely died even when it took in water. the quality difference between the two cars is something no words could describe. allstate owed it to me, 8 yrs and almost $17,000 in insurance paid since my last fender bender when i was 17
