Yeah, I caved 2

Post by SEISAN » Thu Sep 29, 2011 9:43 am

Everybody knows I am a covette guy ( even though I have a certain respect for Miata's )

Yes I did cave and I have a new Corvette ZR1. I will be bringing to up to the track next week for a test run. I maybe crazy but I have also decided to let 2 COM members give it a try next week at NH. If you are interested let me know why you prefer a corvette over a Miata and just maybe you could give it a test run.

I'm not sure that the purchase of a new Corvette ZR1 can be classified as "Caved".

Congrats! I look forward to seeing it up there.

Congrats Bob! That's a beast of a car, it will be quite a scary ride around NH for sure.

I'm betting this ZR1 does not have a VIN.

I prefer a ZR1 to a Miata in every way.....except the cash it takes to own one.


Do I get a test drive? ;)
