Back into a Z06

I sold my '06 WW Evo IX a few years back to buy a 2007 Corvette Z06. Unfortunately I had to sell the Z06 and moved on to another project (LS3 powered E36 M3). I ended up selling the M3 last month and picked up a 2009 Z06. I am working on a full detail right now, but here are some pics after a quick wash.















Detail in progress.....

Very nice. Honestly, the C6 Z06 is one of my favorite driving cars. Has that "I want to ripyourfaceoff" feel that very few other cars have.

Nice ride!

I've always loved the performance to dollar of the 'vette. To me, you expect a 'vette to give you a good run for the money.

It's the guys in the four door sedans that surprise you.

Thanks, it's a Specter Werkes Group 6. It will be replaced with a ZR1 spoiler soon though.

Thanks, and yes the M3 was a blast. I got some very strange looks while driving that car!

How much power on the dynojet did the M3 put down? Nice vette.

SOLID CHOICE! My buddy just picked up a black 2009 Z06 as well that I'll be getting my hands on for a serious detail too .
