i loved driving the C6 ZHZ! I wouldnt mind having one, maybe someday
My C5 doesnt seem dated, actually my C5 is a low mileage car and its like driving a new car... The ZHZ i rented was also a low mileage car but you know its a rental... Bad tires, and a bunch of strange noises here and there I loved it anyway though

Yeah the C6 ZHZ is a fun car. Drove one myself a couple of times on some Florida business trips.

The roofs creek like crazy and the runflats are noisy, but other than that it was a fun car. My next vette will definitely be a 6 speed paddle shift.

Great pictures and hope you had a nice vacation.

A C6 for the price of a Mustang. You can't beat that deal.
I'm guessing you went to the Warbird Museum?

Nice pics

How much per day did they charge you for the Vette? Might do that next winter on my Fla trip and keep the miles down on my car.

They charged me 380$ for a week same as the Mustang, but i believe the ZHZ would be around 1000$ for a week.... So you can i say i was very lucky
