Wifey gets the new job I get the new car. Gotta love it.

I wish you and your wife the best of luck with the possible new job offer.

The Grand Sport is sick! I really like the wheels and the wide body look. Not to mention just a few mods brings that LS3 almost to Z06 hp. The C6 Z06 puts down about 443whp 412wtq (Z06 dyno numbers - Z06Vette.com - Corvette Z06 Forum) vs bolt on LS3 431whp 412tq pretty damn close for ALOT less money and still get the wide body looks!

But for the record I still love my Z. It's funny how quick you get use to power. I took a vacation recently and rented a Kia with a 1.6 4cyl for a week. When I got back from the trip and drove my Z again I thought did someone put a supercharger in this thing while I was gone, damn its fast. Few months go by and I am in here talking about a Corvette, never enough lol.
