I can't do that, bro...that's the PCCB color.
would paint the calipers red to match the interior theme...

Thanks, Dickie. We need to get yours, mine and Peter's cars together for a photo shoot one of these days. My neighbor is a pro, and would love to take some pics for us.

Thanks, bro. It's definitely the nicest car I've personally ever owned. No doubt about it.

Paulie, he's doing great. His job, 2 year-old twin girls and 12 year-old daughter keep him very busy...but yes, he drives his car all the time. The thing is a super reliable, easily daily-driveable car. He runs 100 octane 99% of the time at 1.3 BAR, and loves it at that power level.
He plans on running the TX Mile (on full-boost with C16, of course), so you'll see him March.

Thanks. Here's my thoughts on the two cars:
The Z06 is fast, well-balanced and handles well. I like how it sounds and how it looks. I dislike the notchy shifter, the quick-to-fade brakes, the low interior quality, and the paint quality. I also dislike the fact that many components were under-built from the factory (pistons, transmission, differential and half shafts, to name a few). I don't expect it to be at the same level of quality as the GT2, but for $80k, I think it should be better. I also think that the ZR1 is a better car than the Z06, but not by much.
The GT2 is also fast, well-balanced and handles well. I also like it sounds and how it looks. I love the buttery shifting, the quality interior components, the paint quality, the simplicity, and the over-built strength of the stock engine and drivetrain. It's built like a $195k car should be, IMO.
