I had a guy ask me " what did that run you, about 150k?" I start laughing and said about 1/3 of that.

I had a woman ask me yesterday how I can afford a 60,000 dollar car. When I told her I paid 15 grand for it, she almost passed out

I remember when I first got my Z in 2003, I had someone ask me if it was an Austin Martin!

Nice car OP, never knew you would have it this soon!
I'd like to talk to the your friend about his mods. C5 Z06's can be had at a great price nowadays. Bring'em to a meet sometime.

You might know him actually. His first of his recent cars was a Vortech Z. Red, HUGE Vortech graphics on the side, sitting on Racing Harts. I'll dig up a picture. His forum name is ValdezTKE, also known as Juan.

I just bought new rear PS2's for my 19's $800 shipped off ebay. Tirerack they are I believe 450ish each. Not fun. Other than tires though stuff is not that much more expensive I don't think.
