My Z06 Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 HI. I am Mark, I am just west of toledo of Toledo. My current toys are 02 Z06, 06 TBSS, and the dd 01 impala. Past toys have been a c6z, a c5z, Lightning, several fox mustangs,a few Dsms, and a few turbo regals.And a couple of sport bikes. As you can tell I like to change toys all the time. My current Z is still stk. But that should change b4 fall. Plans are Lg pros,h/c, intake and few other things. I had to keep it stk for awhile. As I was picked to have my car used for a upcoming Car & Driver article that should come out this fall.The article will be about fun cars that can be purchased for around 25k. That took place in june. The others car that were there for the article was > nsx,ttsupra,e55,dodge ram srt 10,bmw m3,miata, porsche, i think there was one or two more that I can't recall at this time.They only wanted cars that weres till stk. I had just picked up my current Z in april out in las vegas. Flew out there with my son and drove back, fun trip The TBSS is still bone stk. I am at work or I would have more pics. 1st one is the view of my garage with the toys in there. 2nd one is when I picked up the Z 3rd one is a pic on the way back. Hopefully have more later, and a few pics of the past rides. http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/8435/dsc01240ve4.jpg http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/8357/damian005yu9.jpg http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/2299/dsc02652wi4.jpg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Z06 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 It says you had a C6Z, what happened to that? Well , I sold my first c5z to free up some cash for my wifes real estate crap. And I told myself the next car I bought would be a C6Z, which I did. I always liked the front ends of the new c6, but thought the back end of the car was ,well, kind of ugly. I had it for about 6 months, but the rear just didn't grow on me. Don't get me wrong it was a bad ass car. But the C5Z just feels more raw and racey. And I like how the c5z is a FRC I just like the lines of the C5Z. There have been a few people that have switched like I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Z06 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Tell me about your DSM's Well, A few of them were just stk. But, I had a 95 Tsi (fwd) FP green,tial,Buschur fmic, s-afc and tons of supporting mods running low 12's. Prob could have been high 11's had I tuned it better and kept a trans in it. I went thru 4 of them. I was tired of getting them rebuilt. It was a fun car. I will get another one some day, but awd. Had a 91 awd (auto though) with a few mods big 16g,fmic, etc. Never took it to the track, water pump went on it one day while driving it. Ended up damaging it. Parted out a bunch of dsms in my days. Last time I had a dsm was in 01'. Went on to notchback 5.0 after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSXRAntwon Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Welcome to CR. Nice vette's, I just still cant believe how you dont like the rear of the C6's....I for one like both looks of the C5/C6. Deff go to IPS to get tuned and anything else you need.
