My wife is actually thrilled, save the price. She hated the Z.
I'm sorry, I'm sure it is. Nice car. :tiphat:

My wife gets sick in my Z. "I can't stand the G's." :roflpuke2:

So when I tour with her it's in the SL500 I picked up used a few months back. Fun convertible. However, still no room for human kids. Works well for birds and dogs though.

They have air bags / magnetic ride control?
I guess that makes sense for load carrying capacity.
I too thought it was the air bag inside when I saw the video.

Nice ride mate, Congrats!!

Yeah, the airbag issue is real and gets triggered when there is a quick G load transition (think chicane). The good news is that pulling the airbag fuse solves the problem while tracking and then reinstalling the fuse reverses things without any extra steps. Easy enough.

I do miss the steering of the Z. I've driven a lot of cars and I think the Z's steering feel and weight is right up there at the top.

They knock 10k off for the paint? :roflpuke2:

Sorry, love the car but dear lord the color!

I understand the reaction to pics online. You have to see it in person. Nothing but rave reviews. It's pretty killer actually.

The color is sick imo. I may be a little biased driving a brilliant silver Z though.
I saw a black cady wagon and its paint was crazy looking up close with the specs reflecting in the sunlight!

The Future
 
Somewhere in 2017 I will be contemplating the next generation CTS-V coupe or a used 2015 C7 Corvette.:rolleyes:

Man! I hate to see you go. Thanks for the times you helped me. At least you got a well round car.

Exact way I dream of owning this car. Congrats on what is probably the best sleeper you can buy from a normal car company.

I bet you are still loving the V wagon after having some time to get acquainted to it. I was contemplating getting a manual V wagon, but decided on the 2014 Jeep SRT. Hopefully confirming the deal this week. Unlike the wagon, it can tow 7200lbs, so I can tow the Z to the track! I love that America is producing these vehicles with necessary room powered by completely unnecessary powertrains. Enjoy it!

Wasn't easy seeing it being driven away. I've enjoyed this forum immensely, benefitted from all those who contributed, and hope I've helped some people along the way.

Here's the 'more practical' replacement...all 556HP. :)

2013 V-Wagon with manual trans and all options checked.
NICE! traded non-practical for a Practical.......with over 500 HP. I think if your running late and need to get the kids to school asap this thing will surely do it!

It is a bit different driving these heavy grocery-getters, isn't it OP? But damn, it's fun.

If you're going to replace Z with something practical that's how you do it.
