Nice man!!

Just did some photo shoot, a new album in my profile, 8 interior pics.

Thegreatone and Alcheng - Looking great! I must admit it takes some cajones to bake your headlights open tho!

Morning guys.

Man you guys have been busy.

Happy I'm an RN in a hospital on a med/surg floor. I'm a volunteer asst fire chief/EMT RIT/FAST team safety officer. Full plate LOL. Been having some drama with my ZL1 order. Slowly working thru it with Chevy Customer service being involved. In a nutshell I have put down a $2000 deposit and have received approval for financing using my Z as a trade in. The ZL1 is of course limited production and I'm trying to ensure that on Feb 1st the dealer ordered me one. Not all dealers have one to sell. I still do not know when my car will go into production or when it will come in. I'm unable to get an order # to follow it's build. So I'm wait and see right now.

Hey Fire, you really have multiple identity eh? LOL

I hope your ZL1 order will work out fine.

Mr.TheGreatOne, I hope you still find me as a normal, cos I did the photo shoot at 3am in the morning. LOL

Good Morning Z fellows!!!

Good morning everyone.

I do not have any plans for the Z's today. My wife's Echo took a major dump yesterday (tranny blew) and I have her sold on buying a Juke. A gun metallic SL, 6MT awaits us at our Nissan dealer, but Nissan has put a sales hold on the Jukes while they investigate an issue with fuel pumps.

Wow! Sorry to hear about the Echo!

Hopefully the situation with the Juke gets cleared up soon! In for pics on purchase!

Just curious, the Juke does not have the kind of steering lock like the Z, right??

Thanks. The Echo has been making a noise under load for about a year. We have 136,000 miles on her so we definitely got our money's worth. Anyway, I knew the noise was coming from the tranny input shaft bearing and we decided to just drive it until it failed. Kate picked me up at the airport Friday and driving back it was loud as heck. Yesterday I limped it over to Colin's shop to get it on a lift to check it out and get an opinion on a rebuild cost. It failed driving home and is now sitting on the street, dead, with a jammed transmission.

The upside is a new Juke. Another upside is that the owner of Colin's shop wants to buy the Echo as is for his daughter. The thinkg is in great shape (minus the current undriveability). It has brand new Yokohama Avids, nice rims, K&N intake, Koni Sport-D, Dynaflow exhaust and a new a/c system. It also gets 40 mpg.

The Juke SL is stitting, waiting for us. It is beckoning with its quirky siren song "come buy me".

That's pretty ridiculous, I saw your post the other day too. It's bad business practice to take a deposit on something the dealer can't even guarantee will follow through on, but hopefully you get some closure soon! The ZL1 looks wicked, nice choice.

Hey guys. Got a little sleep. Looking forward to the Phoenix race today. To say how serious Chevy is with the ZL1 they are extending their warranty to track days. Who does that?
