So here's the story. I'm at Best Buy today TV shopping in the Z06. See photo at Best Buy:



I decided to buy the TV so I went home and got my Montana van. So we go back to best buy. Then, on my way home I'm verry happy with my new 42" LCD flat screen TV purchase when I spot a yellow "Z06" in my mirror. As it gets closer I realize that I am in the WRONG CAR!! WHY OH WHY COULD THIS NOT HAVE COME SOONER!!!

This is what I saw:








Say what you want about living in Michigan, but GOD I LOVE LIVING 10 minutes from GM WORLD HEADQUARTERS.

I thought Blue and Gray were the only two colors for the ZR1. Awesome siting! I'll probably be moving to Detroit or elsewhere in Michigan when I finish up my Automotive Engineering degree next May.

I think your Vette looks better. After seeing newer pics of these ZR1's, the only thing that really does not sit well with me is the stupid window on the hood.

Awesome sighting.

Man that looks pretty good in yellow. Never thought I'd ever consider yellow on a vette.

the blue calipers really throw me off. dont know why they couldnt just match body color...its like they were really scrambling for things to set it apart from the Z06.
