I finally pulled the trigger. I just called the dealer and said I will take it! I love my 93 but after I drove a friends 08 with the mighty LS3, I was completely lost. I will probably sell the 93, but not for a little while. I gotta get used to the idea first.

Best part is Momma is onboard too, so no dog house for Daddy! First trip will be a 10 hour drive home all by my lonesome. I can already Chickenfoot and Van Halen blasting from the stereo.

LS3 6 speed STICK. It has the F55 magnetic selective ride which is really rare on a manual trans car. Two tone leather guts, HUD, all the electronic toys except nav (I have a new Pioneer unit for that!), upgraded brakes and wheels, both tops and ...get ready for it C4 guys...Warranty!

Can't wait to get it and start playing...

It's 08 but in very good condition, 1 owner and all that good stuff. The best part is right now I save almost $2K just on the currency exchange. Gotta like that.

It's a GM Certifird used car so it gets a 12000 mile 12 onth bumper to bumper warranty. If there is an extra cost, they are hiding in the price of the car. I don't imagine I will need to use it but you never know, right?

That Cashmere interior is very nice too! As far as problems, the only problems I have heard of from a couple members where a couple cars that had no-start issues due to a battery drain issue. Once that was fixed it was easy sailing.

I fondled a Carbon Z06 Special Edition Yesterday! It is one of the 500 built and was the Inferno Orange! I did not like the color on some of the other Vettes, but with the headlights blacked out and the side mirrors in black it looks pretty awesome.

I like to get in and be the first to smell the new leather. I know that should be reserved for the new owner but they will never know!

It's called Crystal Red Metalic. A friend has one and it looks excellent in bright sunlight. Only 9 more sleeps 'til I go get her!

C6's be pretty damn sweet. Holding out for a Z06 or ZR1 on my end.

I must say I am getting pretty tired of my C4 ZR-1.
