The point people are missing is that in the forum's heyday we didn't treat departing members like this. When someone decided to move on there was no, "wow, this car sucks," or "what a downgrade" talk. Instead it was a simple, "good luck!" and we moved on.

When someone spends time on the forum to participate and contribute I think we at least owe them a bit of respect. There's no need to denigrate someone's choice. It's not an A vs. B thread... it's a "Hey guys, thanks, I had fun!" thread.

Some still get it, many don't. But I digress...

The way I see it enjoy what you have. If you are fortunate to one day move up in the echelon of things, good for you. But please don't be a hater, not everyone has to like what you like.

OP, congrats on the vette. Maybe I will find myself in a C7 Z06 one day. One can only hope 'til then it is the Z life for me.

Congrats on the Vette, what are your plans for it?

That platform has a ridiculous amount of mods available for it so you will have your choice of whatever you want for it.

Supercharger, wheels, exterior, interior, exhaust, intake, etc.. are all readily available and with the LS responds really well to mods

Post of the year...

I know so many people who no longer post here once they moved on from the Z community since they don't feel like they can effectively participate but if we were all more cordial to people who move on from the platform we would have an easier time retaining members
