Yes, for sure it does, thank you.
Friday I was sent videos of the same car in Ohio, I agree to purchase that night - he said he’d send me docs in the am to sign so I could send payment. I woke up Saturday, didn’t see the docs - sent out a text, and he replied back someone was there to purchase the car. 🤦🏻♂️ It sold that day. Looking at another one in IL. 🥴 |

View Quote She's been wanting to take my 800hp zl to do HPDE... I kept telling her no. Mostly cause the fastest car she's ever driven was her factory super charged 2002 Monte Carlo. She's taken my zl1 to different shows but never the track. I was going to find a 5th gen SS but the prices have gotten nuts. Found this 4th gen and she's always loved the ws6 trans am. So 300ish hp would be a good start for her. Plus the track closest to us has a 96Db limit and my zl1 is in the 115+ range. Now I just gotta hope she will let me drive it in the track a weekend she doesn't want to rave. |
