So I finally made the decision to drive up to Iowa from Tennessee to get my ZL1. Got about 4 hrs of sleep because I was so excited. Had to pull over for a 45 min nap about 4 hrs in. My buddy slept until 10 am. Made it there. Took the car for a spirited test drive. Threw the car on the lift looked it all over. It had 3,330 miles on her. Got home at she had 4,000 miles on it. Signed the paperwork and drove straight home. Had to pull over on the side of the road and gas stations to stay awake. Killed a 12 pack of red bulls. Totally worth it, and I couldn't be happier with the Zl1 with the recaros. Here are just a few pics.

Wanted to say thanks to all of you on here.

Some things I would like to do it change the front and rear emblems. Previous owner painted them Red. Maybe a Rotofab CAI (no tune required so they say) and a z28 spoiler with a wickerbill.

Nice looking ZL1. I have the all black 15. I see you're in Clarksville. I was there for about 7 years stationed at Ft. Campbell.

Glad you were able to find one!!!

Very nice! I like the ghosted side markers with the black wheels. The whiteZL1, with all black accent is a great look. Where is the rear, spoiler? Is that not a STD option? Never seen one without?

Very nice pair of wheels! You sound as excited as I was when I had to fly to Dayton, Ohio from Eastern NC to get my Camaro. The drive home was so sweet, long but sweet. Nearly six months later and I still find myself saying, "God that is mine"! Enjoy.

My pair of toys is the Camaro and my 96 Impala SS, heavily modified with the 6 speed/373 gears and the LT1 now putting out 425HP, has just under 10K on the clock.

Nice pair of cars. I have always loved those Impalas. Like the wheel choice as well.

Great stable mate! You'll love the ZL1 and the Recaros. Congrats!
