Wow, that is one dazzling car! Congrats! You have good taste. And please don't drive like an ***. The general public wants to like seeing these cars on the road.

I took it out for some twisty roads this weekend and could not get any tire slide. I could only imagine what it's like if I had got the magnetic ride option.

Haven't had the chance to test it out yet but most people are getting 3.7 to 3.9.

Congrats on the purchase. One of very few American cars I would want to own. The new design looks even better. There's a black one on our street and a Z06 nearby. Love the start up sound.

Thanks. I drove a Z06 once and damn that exhaust is loud when you get on it.

God I wish I fit . 6'5" and 290 lbs isn't going to allow me in LOL . They are priced so well and used examples can be had for very little . A buddy got one recently was complaining that he took a 17k hit in 10 months . A used one would be sweet
