Default First Mod - Major Upgrade :^)

Hello all,
Its been 3 years 3 Months and 8 days since I wandered home with my Daytona Blue 6MT Touring. What a great car!

Yesterday, however, I made a change to it.....

Before:


After:


Its subtle - Im hoping the wife doesn't notice
(otherwise she will be obligated to come home with another dog)
For Instance - This is the little blue dog she came home with in response to my coming home with the little blue car:

(not-kidding. His name is Blue)(188lbs of blue!)

Needless to say - I am over the moon today. - Don't get me wrong - I LOVED the Z, but I have wanted a Vette since I was about 7years old. Since I turn 40 in about a month - I suppose this is my crisis.

Take Care all and thanks for all the fun/info over the last several years.

Very nice upgrade -- and subtle., too!


I've never been a big Vette fan, but the c6 changed my mind: I love the lines and love the performance stats.

Beautiful color, too. Congrats!

Congrats my friend. No one can fault you for that one. If you think you loved the Z, wait until you really fall for the vette. Thats what love is about

Cheers,
Allen
