Thank you to the original owner from NY for keeping such a clean car.

I have been looking at that car on Cars for a few days. I'm just window shopping right now but it did seem nice. The other one that caught my eye was from a dealer in Carol Stream.
Congrats and do you give rides? I olny live a few minutes from Stacek.

I'll need the Duct Tape to hold my cheeks together while driving (i'm not referring to the cheeks on my face) :booty

There is a silver one around for sale... can't remember where I saw it... equally as good a deal. Better get one now before the spring rush is over and they're all gone!

A ride is no fun... go take a test drive!

Sorry silver isn't gonna cut it. It's got to be victory red
 
Is that bird s--- on the floor????

;LOLIt's the reflection of the chrome wheels on the new flooring they have at the dealership. Look closely.
 
What A Great Car

Dave,
Well done. It's a perfect car and you're going to love the performance envelope.

You won't need the duct tape,1 good jab of the accelerator and "Your Cheeks" will be draw-ed together so tight that they couldn't drive a Rail Road Spike up your a$$ with a Jack Hammer!!:thumb:thumb:thumb

:D
 
I picked her up early... last night.

Really, it's amazing how fast it gets to 60.
Really, it's amazing how fast it gets to 100.
Really, it's amazing how fast it gets to 120.
Really, it's amazing how well the brakes work.

What a trip! Totally easy to drive around... but man o man when ya get on her...

Going to have to learn me how to turn the nav lady off. She is f'ing annoying!

Going to have to tune that stereo... it sounds crappy.. and it's the Bose option. I didn't have time to play with the EQ (as noted by the above series of numbers flashing before my eyes).
 
LS7 is a small block.

Let's not split hairs here...

Why not call it big displacement? Just cause the walls of the box are thinner, doesn't mean it won't hold just as much stuff!
 
Ok, ok, its' a very large small block, but it's still a small block. BTW, there's nothing wrong with it being a small block. I like mine...:thumb
 
Congrats, that's one beautiful Zee! :beer
