    Default Picking up a Z part 2....

    As a continuation to this thread:

    Picking up a Z....

    So through a series of terrible events Monday early morning prior to my flight out to pick up my new car, I ended up passing on the option to buy as the guy turned out to be a dick and gave me an uneasy feeling. Not so good when you could be 700 miles from home.

    Fast forward several hours to Monday night and I got an email from a local gentleman who heard about my plight.

    He had the exact car I was looking for in Atomic Orange with less miles and a few more options, one of them being Procharged. So after a few email discussions and finally a meeting today, I brought this peach home.

    2007 Z06 16k miles
    Procharged 4 lbs
    Spec Stage 3 clutch
    OZ Racing Superleggera III stock sizes OZ Racing
    B&B Fusion (which I am selling)
    Also selling my 20's I had bought for it iForged Imolas
    Mild to Wild
    Tinted windows

    I have a few things to put on soon, some interior and exterior LED’s, a catch can and a set of lowering bolts.

    I've never seen a Z06 in that color, very cool.

    What kind of power is it putting down?

    thats great that someone from car forums heard about your trip and offered you their car.
    Must be really nice to get a procarged one instead of a stock motor Z.

    And thank goodness you are selling those wheels.
