Indeed, black looks totally stunning! lick



If they find away to keep them clean longer than 1 mile after a full valet, I'll have another black Vette, but until then, for me, it's a nono

Nice to see you again at VW by the way, sorry we didn't really get a chance to have much of a chat.

is it ok for a monaro owner to say hi and say these cars look fantastic! (Specially in black but I am biased )

Of course its OK Stig ! Our cars share a common bloodline after all. I have a monaro and a C5 and a C3 vette and they are all a joy to own and drive. I am wrestling with my conscience over a ZO6 right now, so who knows?

No Smart car - but my neighbour was one of the first companies to import the things into the UK ! I've never driven one, but did diagnose a duff coil on Smart a while ago ! RHD Vette, Theres a couple of crudely converted C3s about, but dont think theyve ever been offered with stock RHD. No bad thing, helps keep them more exclusive!

I figure in about 10 years once the price has come down I will find a nice black 50k miles Z06 and park in next to the black ZR-1. As Pink Floyd would say...'A Nice Pair'....in my garage!
Black does suck to keep kleen but nuthin looks better JIMO that is why I am a Black Sheep Squadron member. No Pain No Gain!!! My latest Summer 06 Photo of the KOTH....

Just as well you're in the Land of the Free and the home of the Braves (although I thought they were in Atlanta and you guys had the White Sox). By 2016 in the UK,

His Toniness will be talking about handing over to Gordon Brown
Ken Livingstone's congestion charge will extend 250 miles from central London (including Northern France)
The congestion charge will be £500 per day for a 7 litre car
Road tax for a 7 litre car will be more than £3,000 a year
Petrol will be £25 a gallon, and
The Science Museum will display the UKs last last remaining Z06 next to Stephenson's Rocket.

Come on mate, get that Z06 you know you want it. Oh and black is definitely the colour for you. I can just picture it, you tearing down the road with that demonic heavy rock music blasting out... yep a black beast should be added to your 'toy collection' with immediate effect hehe smokin

"Black is not wack!"

"Yellow is the NEW Black."

"You can't go wrong with either BLACK or SILVER."

"The only place yellow belongs on the road are the center stripes and street signs."

"LMB is a great color as well."

What strange people they are......All Corvettes are Red!
