Here's a quote from somewhere else when I got home from Museum pickup...
"As I'm pushing 30 hours without sleep I'll keep this short for now...
You all know how exicted I was about this car. It's ten times better than I ever could have expected. The car is absolutely outrageous...I (we) still would have paid 70k for it even if it ran 14seconds in the quarter and was slower than an M3 around the ring. This thing also looks much better in person...far and away. I was far from psyched on the looks but it's fantastic looking from every angle. From 50 feet away looking at the rear it's got the meanest stance of any car I've ever seen. The interior is 1000% better than the C5. The materials are of a higher quality (still GM quality....but much much better)...and it looks great. The NAV/XM is the fu##ing coolest toy I've ever had. The tires stupid huge. Mark my words....within a year a bunch of you will have one. The steering and feel is far greater....not the numb bullsh1t of the C5. It is absolutely incredible....other than appearance items the only thing I'de change on it is the sound. It is crazy quiet. But again...I'm floored at how sick this thing really is. And I'm not talking about performance at all. It was far too cold to get on it at all. Once it gets warm and the tires hook..."game over"

Congratulations Gene! I was wondering when we were going to hear from you. Now we need some more pics.

I know everyone who has one says they are awesome, but until you take delivery of the new Z and drive it, you just think o.k. ...well, it is like my other Z. NOTTTTT. Watch out on cold tires!!! Have fun and enjoy.
