Zippy,

Is there anyway you could find out of the total built, how many of them were Zs?

Two things I have heard from people close to the know.....they are gearing up a bit and Z's aren't on the computer tracking like the coupe and verts. For my museum delivery in a couple of weeks, they go by a hand written sheet and I guess for the coupes and verts they can determine production dates via the computer.....

Two very high GM Official's were overheard discussing GM's financial dilemma.

1st GM Official: You know Bill were are losing market share and losing millions of dollars.

2nd GM Official: Wow! Bill, I didn't know that. I heard that they build some kind of a plastic sports car down in Bowling Green or some place like that called the Z06.

1st GM Official: I've heard of that car

2nd GM Official I also heard that there are selling like hotcakes and the Dealers can't kept them in stock.

1st GM Official: Thanks for the info. I'll call the plant and slow down production.
