Re: Like it or hate it let me know
 
If you like purple cars then I guess it is cool. But I wish I had the callaway package in black. The LPE body would be even better for me though. You are Definitely in the waxer category now. I think if I ever do upgraded brakes I'll be using a set with black hats, which is easy because I think they come that way, haha. I think I need a lift, the underneath of my car has to be dirty. You guys with the clean and polished undercarriage drive me nuts.

I actually like them on their own BUT since its a Callaway, there's already bling on it. I love the car however.

That is exactly why I painted them. I was tired of the oxidization.

Over the winter I will pull the calipers clean up all of the casting and than polish them,

Keep it! With an ordinary car I would say no, but looks awesome with your paint and custom work

I originally did the plate because Reeves is well known for the TT L98 engine. I talked to him for about 45 minutes at Bloomington gold show trying to get him to agree on doing one more TT ZR1. No go he kept trying to push me into a new Callaway Z06, I test drove it and while it was amazing it was still a Cadillac with a lot of HP.
I really missed the sound and drive of a real corvette. The Callaway just feels like a Corvette it is stiff, loud fun to drive and just fells like a Corvette.
I would like to get a TT engine for the car. Just have to decide if I want a another Nice ZR1 (415 cu in), C6 Z06 for or a TT ZR1 engine for the Callaway. I have the entire winter to decide.

I talked with Aaron Scott last week he has a 900+RWHP TT ZR1 in his shop right now. I think I will be down in Tallahassee in 2 weeks will shoot by his shop while I am there.
