As a Motorhead I would say congrats, that is one sweet ride.

But I am left wondering

From a parent standpoint, wern't you trying to sell the GTO because you had your child on the way?

and as a businessman,
How many people have the LS7 Z06 and of them how many are modifying them?

Not trying to rain on your parade, just a little

this post could have been left to pm mark, this kind of disappoints me. but to answer your question, i have had a few financial changes in my personal life that has allowed me to afford this car and you dont know the whole story so please dont assume. and to answer your question about the owner of c6 z06 modifying them, yes alot do modify them, alot road course them, its a factory race car and alot of people buy them to race them, but of course there are people that leave them stock as well.

Not trying to rain on your parade. Congratulations. It takes money to make money and if it will help you build your client base and there is a market there then it makes perfect sense. I just did not know what kind of market there was. I was not thinking road racing.

I was not trying to assume anything, You post publicly and 2 of your pervious threads left me wondering. Wives can give a lot of greif "you bought another car bla,bla,bla"

I see some people sell their car when they have a kid on the way I don't advocate that by any means and I don't get it. A car seat fits in the back of an F-body

I am not a pesimist or an optimist just a realist. They were just questions.

I want black, 2LZ and chrome wheels - nav is not that important to me. I'll have one in the next week or so. I'll hit you up for some long tubes and an intake in a few weeks.

Congrats again.

I don't think its from testing with the vettes. Well with the Z06 at least. On that episode of amazing factories or whatever they were testing all the motors on an engine dyno before they ever went in the car. The only miles should be loading and unloading off the trucks/lot.
