All my husband had to say was "Want to go look at a Camaro?" and we were in the car going to "look." We still fight over who gets to drive it if we go out.

[QUOTE=wirebender;6703902]After almost 4 years I traded up to a 2013 ZL1! Blue Ray, CF insert, suede, auto, sunroof...I'm a bleesed man! Not just to be able to get this phenomenal vehicle, but also because I have an awesome wife that gave her blessing on the purchase, the resources required, and lots of help and encouragement over many years from all my "friends of Bill W."



I went to the dealership to buy a 427 Corvette. This is what I drove home.

The ZL1 is an awesome freakin car. I'd much rather have that then the Z-28 (From the little I heard about it- it's not for me). I would have traded up for the ZL1 myself but I already did massive upgrades by Lingenfelter, which to me, is just as cool. Enjoy the ride.

I am kinda curious; how is the traction with the stock tires when flooring it? I am slowly winning the traction battle in trying to get all 650 HP planted during launches. It ain't easy- was wondering how it is with 580 HP!!
Don't really know yet....still doing the break in! I think it might be a problem though!lol
