Re: I did a bad thing...
"Once back home I was fortunate to find a 1990 red ZR-1--almost an exact duplicate of the new one I bought new more than 10 years ago."
I just read my post. Of course I meant to say "more than 20 years ago". No one ever accused me of being good at math...or typing! |

Re: I did a bad thing...
Hans, congrats on the purchase, sorry to hear that you won't be back in a ZR-1 immediately.

Re: I did a bad thing...
That's quite true, it is technically correct. Nonetheless, after realizing my goof I went back and corrected my original post.

Re: I did a bad thing...
Thanks guys! I have two buddies here that have ZR-1's so I won't be far from the action. I will probably come along to Vegas this fall with one of them.
I have no doubt there will be another Z in my future, just a matter of time. H

Re: I did a bad thing...
What can I say- I completely understand the C6. I like the interior color especially...looks like a clean one.

Re: I did a bad thing...
Beautiful car and after next weekend when I get Hans' old Z out of his garage and give him back his space, I'll bet there will be no end of improvements on the new beauty. John

Re: I did a bad thing...
Congrats Hans on the nice score and good price.
Sure as GSJoe pointed out you can have you cake and eat it as well. Someday you will add the Z back into the fold.
