Thanks everyone! So excited! Car actually was confirmed loaded onto the transport today.

No pics until the car shows up this Saturday or Monday! However, my avatar image is the actual car.

Been a long time dream come true... since the first 'Corvette Rocket Commercial' my kids said "Dad you need that car!"... now we got it!

Thanks,
Dave

Congrats I'm also new to the ZR1, coming from a Z06 I didn't think there would be that much of a difference, I was WRONG!! Besides the obvious difference of 133 hp, the 3ZR interior, massive brakes and much more refined suspension put the ZR1 in a class by itself. Enjoy.

That fart guy thinks he has a ZR1 but is a GTR lover. c5kid is fartpipe's parter in crime and his white Zr1 is on jackstands all the time so it might be a magic trick. And as for whatcop just take a good look at his avatar. As you can see he likes all the colors of the rainbow. But don't be fooled they are all fruit cakes and ***** cats.

Hey Dave, CONGRATS! I pick my '10 ZR1 up this morning (traded in '06 Z51).. Don't want to hijack your thread, but what clear bra are you going with? I have 3M on my '06. Still best one out there?

Can't wait to see the pic's after you get her back..

My favorite color for a zr1 thats exactly how i wantit.Low mileage and white .Now for that to happen the other vettes and the turbo buick must be sold .Hopefully sooner than later.Lately you advertize cars and very few serious people call.Patience will prevail.I m in no great hurry.
