Venomss = Z06

Had a chance today to take some pics of my newest purchase. Bought the car on Saturday. It's a 2004 Z06 w/ 7,000 miles.

 

I've only had a chance to drive it for a few hours thus far, but I can tell you that it's light-years ahead of the 03 Cobra in terms of drivability and overall quality. For instance, in the Z06, you can actually shift without getting a cramp in your left leg, unlike the experience of mashing down the gorilla of a clutch in the Cobra. From a SOTP perspective, the Z06 and Cobra are fairly even, though the Z06 seems to have a little more up top, which is saying something, b/c plenty of people here can attest to how hard my Cobra pulled up top. I think a lot of it has to do with the weight and aerodynamics of the Z06. Another feature of the Z06 that I didn't think I would find as cool as I have is a heads-up display feature, which projects your MPH and RPMs on the windshield. Very neat, and something that would never appear in the relative wasteland that is Cobra's (i.e., any Mustang's) interior. I plan on posting more updates on my comparison of the Z06 and the Cobra once I've had more opportunity to drive the former.

 

Please excuse the crappy quality of the pics. My camera is the suck, and it was cold, so I really didn't take much time getting great angles or anyting.

(This is Cody)

Cody, no, but close. I live at Gardens at Polaris (formerly Windsor at Polaris). I believe Lake Club is just up Polaris Parkway.

 

And yeah, I hoping to get a few pics of Jessica w/ the Z06 once the weather breaks. Stay tuned, there might even be a Jessica + Danielle video on the horizon...

John get at me and we can lower that bitch on the stock bolts and talk about other things. Also I thought I was gonna go with you when you bought it.... Me = left out... :(

Can we talk about our feelings and drink hot cocoa and read romance novels? It would be nice to see your sensitive side for once.

I've never heard anybody complain about the suspension after lowering them. As long as he gets an alignment, I don't see what it would hurt? Any input on this?
