Had to take Bruce down in a knife fight and took his car cause it's soooo nice....

O.K. - so it was my car all along

Made the deal week before last, flew down on Thursday for pick up and drove to the Mid-Ohio event to hook up with Dave Clay and the Canadian Posse..

The seller, Chris, could not have been a better guy - I have made another CF friend The car is immaculate as advertised, and the whole experience was amazing.

Here are some pics of her. More info later....

Piece of cake - from the time the US Customs Office opened at 8:02 - I was heading out on the QEW exactly 30 minutes later...no one even came out to look at the car.

I was first in line - there were 5 people behind me. One guy was bringing in a Highlander at a savings of $15,000.

Sneaky bastard brought a knife to a fist fight!

Thanks for being a good sport about playing the joke.

Love the car!

Not sure what all the fuss is about...I've seen the car in person and no offence Jack, but I think you got taken buddy. That is one of the poorest examples of a C6 I've seen in a long time...it was clear the previous owner just didn't give a sh!t about that car...I was kind of sorry to see you pull up in it

Did I get your attention?

Of course all the above is actually the other way around. Amazing car and pride of ownership was dripping it off. Good for you Jack

What a great way to break in a new ride...joining up with the Canadian Posse in Granville

Jack - did you decide on keeping the XM or not? Let me know as if not, I plan on killing it tomorrow.

Glad to hear you made it back safe and sound, and customs was a breeze. I'll let Jim know as well.

Wanna buy an Avatar?
