Default Finally Guys I'm Back

Well after the accident on August 31 Cammy was totaled and I was left Vetteless for 2 months and 14 days.... It has felt like and entire lifetime.. I found a few I liked here and there but things never seemed to fall into place. I recently found another one and was very interested I emailed the dealership and never got a reply until I received a phone call today from the GM and he said I was the proud owner of that ZO6! I was shocked and he told me my wife had sent him and email as well and they had been working out the details and she wanted to surprise me with buying it and me not knowing. SO needless to say I was so happy my wife bought me Betty who will be showing up next week on transport! I love my wife... she buys me cool things!!! here is some picks the GM sent me tonight more once I have her home in Denver!!!

Congrats... but Damn.... Think I might have been awful tempted to take a good look at the Silver SRT10 truck sitting next to it..... looks like this place has a lot of toys.

Maybe...but a stock Z06 is certainly worth some praise on its own!
