Back - in the game.
What color is it? Any pic's of it ? Is it cost effective to buy a used car that you have to ship so far ?

Car only has 10k miles on it. Even on the original tires. (not for long - looking at some 305/17 Nittos - on some wider rear rims)
SVTKeith was the original owner. Just a 2.6 metco pulley and a 91 octane tune. Makes 450 rwhp. Going to load in a 93 tune when it gets here (JDM says 40 hp). They can't get 93 up in Canada.
Only other mod might be a rear end brace (IRS - the only weak link in the Cobras).
This one stays stock - got all I need!

I had one back in the day, awesome car. Make sure you do the cooling mod for the cylinder heads. They had a tendency to run hot due to a design issue in the early cars. Here's a link: http://www.lethalper...ooling-mod.html

Man - another voice from the past!

Still got the C6?
Thanks for the tip on cooling!

Been good. Lost my job at the bank after 15 years, took a stab at selling cars, and now I'm getting ready to start a marketing position at another dealer on Monday.
Got rid of the C6 and moved up to a Z06. Also picked up a clean low milage 2001 C5 while I was working at the dealer. Plan was to resell it and make some money off it as I bought it for wholesale but now I may just keep it.
How have things been for you?

Congrats on the Z! Awesome car!
Good luck with the new gig.
Not much going on here.
Divorced. Sold the '07. Selling my house. Renting a house with a garage. Retired from teaching. I'm now a p/t warehouse manager at a food pantry. That's about it!
