Well gents after some long deliberation, I have to confess that my Z06 and I have parted ways. I just had too many cars right now and I also got rid of my E55 Merc AMG.

Both cars were awesome but small weekly repairs on the Merc were annoying me and I didn't want to pay to store the vette another winter.

As a parting salute. The vette was the most reliable car I've ever owned even though it was quite modified from stock. Not the case for most cars!!! I tracked the car 3 times and it never let me down (I did get a high trans temp warning once though). In doing so, it easily handled two vipers, a number of M3s and mustangs. The only car that seriously I could not keep up with was a supercharged S2000 Honda. That thing was a beast!

I'll own another someday I'm sure and I still plan to hang out and share in your experiences!

Yikes, 2 serious performers gone. I hope you've got something left in the stable to have fun with.

Congrats on the sales. I'm sure they found good homes; bet you'll miss at least one of them a lot.

Glad to hear your sticking around to chat.
 
You're lucky I don't live in Edmonton or I would have to slowly cruise by your house everyday just to torture you a little bit...:D That's right, I'm a jerk like that. But seriously, I am looking forward to hearing about your next car, Corvette or not. I think my biggest apprehension to you selling your car is that you won't be visiting us as much:(
 
I'll be around! :). I bought an Infiniti G37x coupe. I'm pretty stoked about it. Nowhere near the power I had but still very respectable. The car is very nice as a package that's for sure. It us somewhere between a car with no back seat and a sedan :)
 
Good cars, HLN. I've had a few Infinitis over the years and enjoyed them all.
an '03 G-Sedan when all the Infiniti rage started in the fall of '02, then to an '03 G-Coupe, and finally to an '06 M45 -- All tech marvels, fast for their time, exceedingly reliable, and, IMHO, way ahead of the competition.
You'll love your G.
If I could recommend a G35/G37 site -- call on the guys and gals at G35Driver.com -- I was there at its inception in '02, progressed to Moderator and then Admin. -- Not been active for a couple years now but still have great contacts with many members and friends there who are very knowledgeable and friendly. (you may even bump into a few of my posts/threads there under my s/n Msedanman)

ONce again congrats and enjoy. Please do stay in touch. I'd love to hear how you like the new Gen G and rest assured that it should help placate those nightmares of not having the 'vette.:)

Colin.
