I do however love the way that ZO6 drives and raw feeling.. It may be worth addressing everything and keeping it.

Realistically though, 5 is one too many for my parking / garage situation.. 4 is really all I "should" keep...lol. Truck would still have to live outside.
We don't need no stink'n realistic thinking around here! LOL

Or budgets!

it's better to beg for forgiveness after the fact than seek approval first.

@Big Swole ... Inquiring minds want to know why both Porsches are in the rear and not front and center?

lol. They came out of the large garage door back there on the end first... I was just lining them up in order of how they came out...They brought the rest from around the other side driveway. Had to bunch them up so the guy could reach them all to wash them.

We had to leave for a bit, so I needed him to not have to move them to get to them.

I think the picture needs to be retaken with the Porsches on a raised platform in front of all the other cars…

So now I can finally DRIVE my 2SS1LE after waiting for my PPF, Sealant, and Ceramic coating the wheels appointment.... Picked it up the other day so my buddy that bought his the same week and I took them to the mountains for a short drive...

He's already broken his in (over 1500) but I was only at 180 miles. Got back home with 345 or so.

I'm extremely impressed with this car already... Wonderful handling car... Can't feel the power yet as I'm being fairly strict on the break-in. Just received my oil and differential fluid for my first change when I get to 1500. lift pads received also. Can't wait to get it fully broken in.

Few pics at Detailed Designs Auto Spa for the PPF and a few pics at a stop in the mountains yesterday.

Well, no... I sold it last night. lol

I ended up finding out the car was going to need more over time (a few things now) than I was willing to invest in it at that mileage, so I moved it on down the road.

I will miss that car though, as I was very impressed with it and will hopefully have one again, just a nicer one with less mileage that doesn't need the work done.
