is it just me? I love stopping at intersections in the ZL1!

lol, I finally realized that I love stopping at red light intersections/ stop signs in my ZL1...just because I get to hear the roar of the exhaust again each time I step on it... hey, if you can't speed because of speed limits then I'm going to reach that max speed limit the fastest I can, haha
I hate red lights while driving in my truck or jeep... but any opportunity I can get to jam on it in the Z , I'm all for it! Slowing down to a stop just seems so much more fun...you hear the car gearing down and the exhaust crackling and popping and it just doesn't get any better...

how about you guys?! lol

YES! I find myself slamming on the brakes to stop at a red light to be first in line to blast off. I haven't run a yellow yet!

I'm the same way for some reason. I thought I was the only retarded one that does that.

I confess

1. I like the sound during the downshifting to the stop
2. I like the people gawking at the ZL1 when stopped
3. I like the sound during the upshifting away from the stop
4. I like the people gawking at the ZL1 while in motion

I'm just saying...

Guilty. And my girlfriend hates it when I don't run a yellow.

Anyone else with a black or ashen grey have any kids point and yell "Batmobile" at an intersection?

I don't think the grin that the sound of this car gives me will ever go away!
