.....to the lure of a Jetstream Blue 2010 ZR1 with the 3ZR Interior in Titanium and the Silver painted rims (don't like the chrome).







I collect the car next Saturday smile

They had a 2007 Callaway Supercharged C6 for $49,000.

Nice one Nige! Looks good, although you still won't beat the 1600lbs of torque I'm driving at the moment. You do have a better weight advantage though biggrin

I wish Kev biggrin Might have more torque, but I'll have to concede 44 tons.

Nige, when will we get to see your new machine?

Rather ironically our Jetstream Blue ZR-1 has arrived this morning and is currently identical to Nigel's except it has Ebony & Cashmere leather. It is a great colour and a real loss to the 2012MY colour pallet.

Blame the Tsunami for the loss of JSB.

Currently on a Megabus from Chicago to Cincinnati to collect the car smile

Love technology! Using WiFi on a bus to post this while listening to Metallica on iTunes on my netbook p.c. which has an 8 hour battery life.

That's done no mileage in 4 years!! Such low mileage and the colour I'd choose it's got my name written all over it.
Now I need to sell my car here in NZ and check it qualifies for Special Interest Vehicle import.
Is ro-ro shipping safe? After the grounded container ship here causing problems it makes you wonder if there is a better way.
