The 370z is a fast car but the zr1 is a whole lot faster

i remember i got quite dizzy after having gone on the "mission to mars" ride at disneyworld, i figure the ride on the corvette zr1 at full acceleration must be even more brutal

Actually, the dealership and I were about $6k apart. We'll see if they want to deal.

Well, it looks like this deal won't happen. I got a call from the dealership yesterday afternoon. The salesman seemed to think that I was not really interested because I had not called them back. I explained to him the difference of opinion on the price and told him that if they were willing to move, that we could still talk. He told me that they really had no room to move because of this car's very limited availability. I agreed, but also told him that the profit margin was great enough that they did have some room to move on price. He disagreed.

So that's where it stands. The 370 is safe. I even started the car (for the first time in two and a half months) and turned it around in the garage to begin work on a few new part install mods.

Only 3 more months of winter!! WooHoo!!
