Default My S2000 Deal fell through so this weekend I picked up...

The S2000 sale went south as the guy tried to change the price. Now my ISF really does have a garage buddy. 2004 Z06 with 17000 miles. Ive never had an american sports car before so i figured i would give it a whirl. So far its been a blast. So much more tq everywhere than im used too and the car has great gearing and suspension. Handles very well for how great it rides. All stock besides a SLP Blackwing intake and a wicked sound system.

Absolutely gorgeous! One of the few cars that pulls off yellow. I have always loved the c5 z06. You will definitely have a blast with it!

I agree - I saw a lemon-yellow C6 corvette this morning on the way into work and I thought exactly the same thing - a bright yellow corvette is a nice color for that car.

When you track the Vette, you'll never bother tracking the IS F again. Way better track animal.

Great looking ride and property. Some of the best sounds Iv ever heard come out of a car was from a c5 z06with a mild cam.. It's simply music..
