Default Just Brought Home

I've owned 3 Corvettes, Mustang SVO, old MG Midget, but this is first Z.

So far so good. Bit tough visibility to the quarter panels, but I have mirrors winged way out to watch the blind spots. Seems to work well. Certainly has sufficient power for street driving. Corners as well as anything I've owned previously including Audi Quattro. It's possible I'll miss the AWD of the Audi or my Infiniti G35x, but I've driven the 'Vettes and SVO in Ohio and Pennsylvania in the winter, so I suspect I can handle it.

I am modifying nothing. I like the lines of the stock car. The sport package has sufficient aero for me.

Thanks, folks. Wife chose the color. She always likes silver, but after 3 silver cars she thought a darker color would be nice--and she adores it. I must admit it was a good choice. I usually went black or red in younger days. It's a lovely auto in my mind. I always preferred shape of coupe to the roadster. Personal choice.
