Default Re: I think it's time to get another z

worry about NOT driving. life is too short to drive junk.

I have 80k miles on my stroker zr-1 and the car pulls harder than it did with 38k miles.

the LT5 will likely last longer than the rest of the car. by all means buy another one and DRIVE IT

no reason not to. measure life in number of grins and you'll be in the ZR-1 more

I decided to commute to work in it. I get up just a bit earlier so I can enjoy the car with the top off in the cool morning air.

the LT5 loves a cool breeze and there's no dyno correction factor on the street. the LSV pics up 20 rwhp at 50 deg, so I know lately I'm getting up to 520+ with the cool 60 deg days and the tires need to be burned off the car. doing my best to do just that

car is a blast. like frankie says "who are you saving it for"

I plan to put 100k more miles on what I have already and then see if it pulls as hard as it does now

the LT5 is an anvil that enjoys a good beating

gets better mileage than the turbo buick anyway
