That car looks GOOD man, I love black wheels on a red (or almost any) car.

Wait, is that red or Inferno Orange?

Congrats on the new ZR.

Are they doing an “updated” Ultimate Factories episode on the C6?

Yes, but it's about the ZR1. They said they were filming the motor build (not mine), the plant, the museum delivery, and Spring Mountain

The episode is supposed to air sometime between the fall to first of 2013

That is the best looking red ZR1 ever IMHO!

The red calipers and the HPD Package are an awesome combo!
