Well, back to the street. 300 miles so far. I'll get to 500 by tomorrow evening. Can't wait to really get on it.
One question... I seem to be attracting every Mustang GT, Firebird, Trans Am, and Z28 in the area. They all seem to want to show me how fast their car is. Is this normal???? I also seem to get groups of cars around me on the highway when there isn't much traffic. Is this normal as well??? see ya
Congratulations on what will be the best car you will ever own! I too had a M3. nice car ,but it cannot compare in terms of raw performance.. I just got back from the caribean with my kids and the fisrt thing I did after walking into the house was check the garage to make sure my silver beauty was well!
I can understand your feelings M3NoMore. The thing you are noticing with the mustangs and others is somewhat normal. ALthough I have had more cobra kit cars and z3-Mpower guys dreaming than the mustangs and camaros. Now that many of them have heard about and experienced the Z06's performance, I don't see them wanting a piece of it as much as just wanting to see it run. If you think the interest of people wanting to see it is neat now, imagine what it was like back when it first came out. I got mine in the first week of September. There weren't many around then and everybody wanted to see it. I had mine at the Ecklers get together in October, I had more people coming over to see my Z06 than any of the really great classic vettes that were there. Now that was a great feeling. Enjoy your new car. Once you get to know your car, try it in the "competition mode". Just be careful, it will roar.

Took the car to MSRH this afternoon to see just how the C7 Z07 19/20 Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s would handle the cool winter weather.
Took a laps or 2 to get up to temp and after that they were very predictable.
But I think the larger rolling diameter of the 19/20's is throwing the Active...
Hard to believe its been 17 years of ownership, 112000 total miles - 5 years, 82000 miles & 2 LS6s, 12 years & 30000 miles on the LS7 Z07 upgrade, 5 sets of wheels later and we still enjoy this car immensely.

I like the look of the OEM C6 guards and want to install a set on my C5-I know there are carbon fiber ones out there but they seem too large to me. I can't seem to find a vender that sells them for a C5-the only thing I have seen is people modifying the C6 versions to fit a C5. Anybody know of a...
