Was describing "Girlfriend" to a buddy of mine, what do you guys think?

Wait 'till you get behind the wheel of the Z.
It's really amazing what GM did with this particular car.
Nearly 400hp to the wheels and it's civilized.
0-60 in less than 5 seconds, top speed 180+, 12 second quarter mile.
You can break every speed law in the country in 2nd gear.
There's 4 more gears after that.
It'll get 27-30mpg on the freeway if you're a puzzy.
If you're not a puzzy, you can set the cruise control at 150mph, turn on
the AC and listen to your favorite CD on the stereo while the cops are
chasing you.

Why yes, yes they do.

Nice place.
Merl Haggard and Johnny Cash both loved the place.

Perhaps not a good place to own a ZR-1, so tempting and yet so close to the Big House...:mrgreen:

I wish my Z got 27 to 30 mpg......I must be doing something wrong.

Pretty good description. Couple things don't make sense. If you say you have nearly 400rwhp, you probably have better than a 12 second ride.
