Default Picked up a new JSB Z06 with Linen interior for the stable

Can't stand putting the miles on the RF and really love the Z06. Saw a left over 2009 so I made an offer (I was sure they would refuse) and they took it! Jetstream blue is a great colour and morphs in the sun.

The new steering ratio is noticeably evident and works well, Also the new series of tranny is very easy to use.

Now off to Davenport Motosports for some goodies and get the new Michelin run flats put on and also get a set of competition HRE's for the track, thinking flat black with a gloss black lip?

May have to get another lift



Interior shots were taken before the window tint and 3M.









It was a bit hazy today but was able to get some pics









Now up to 230 km on the odometer

Yes, I know Smook would be smiling! Looks as good as the day I got it. Have put 1800 km since I got it from Bill so 3000 km on it now. I know it needs to be run but only for car shows or a nice warm sunny day The garage King for sure!


AND YES! I HAVE THE BEST WIFE EVER!

If you wouldn't mind, please PM the details. If you don't that is fine as well.

I'm hunting for Z06 in the US, I would like to buy Cdn if the dollars make sense.

Yes the plan was for a ZR1 but there are only a few coming to Calgary, that I am aware of, could be more. And they are all accounted for other than I could have had a yellow one and I really like the Cyber Grey. On the other hand I was told to get a car I would drive. I wanted one that I could use on the track and the convertible isn't really made for that. AND I'm a stickler for keeping my cars the best I can so I probably wouldn't have driven the ZR1 as much as I would have liked (just to keep the miles down, and I really don't need another garage queen ) Anyway the Z06 is a fantastic car and fit the bill or BILL!

That's funny! Yes he slipped into the dark side, well red anyway I like Tony's 360 Ferrari but I'm a vet guy through and through. Tony and his wife are good people and are still welcome in my house any day, we'll just have to make them park in the "horsy section"
