[Cmicasa the Great]

Thanks guys..; I just want to driver her. I have an appointment tomorrow for Tint.. and I have to make a return visit for the Android Update because I didn't have time to do it earlier. Takes about 30 minutes. Car has Apple Carplay, but I'm all about Android, so it needs to get done. 

[ccap41]

Not too many people can say their 460hp corvette is their slow car

I LOVE that your getting the tiny right away. Tint cleans up the looks on even the best looking cars. How dark are you going?

[regfootball]

that's likely be the color I'd go for, too......

Very nice Casa!

[cp-the-nerd]

That is boiling lava hot. We're going to need some videos of the exhaust revving and maybe a burnout.

[oldshurst442]

To continue on the same theme as CP's boiling lava hot post above...with a rock-n-roll touch

 

Goodness Gracious Great Balls of Fire!

Roll Over Beethoven, Tell Tchaikovsky The News:

 

THIS IS ONE AWESOME RIDE!

 

 

'Nuff said. I dont have to go on on and on about  how great your car is. How fantastic the colour fits your ride.

I  continue to envy you (in the good way). Not for the material objects you buy (the fantastic cars you own), but for the freedom that you enjoy to continually to be able to do that and for the putting your money where your mouth is.

And especially that you are obviously doing well for yourself, which means that you are

1. a hard working soul

2. intelligent to continue on being financially successful.

3. And Im assuming, even with all these lavish expenditures, that you are good with money

4. because you have hinted on many occasions that you take care of the people around you that matter...ie FAMILY!

 

THAT is what I respect about you.

[Cmicasa the Great]

Video will get done, but forget the burnout.. Lol.. I will race.. I will run hard, but I never do burnouts on $500+ each tires. Call me cheap

One thing in wondering is should I have gotten the midnight wheels or the midnight pocket silver ones. While they are not black like my Z51's they are still not blingy like I'm used to on my Caddys

Casa, the rims you got are Perfect, they allow the Calipers to accent the whole wheel and it offsets the rest of the car perfectly. I would have gone with these rims myself or black chrome rims. Either way it would have accented the calipers and the car just right.

 

Nice jobe!

[El Kabong]

Awesome buy man.

But you gotta smoke at least ONE set of tires.

Yeah.. I have fallen for them. I think I might still get the polished ones as a swap for days that I'm feeling the need. Thanks tho

[Suaviloquent]

I know... let's make Rose the next GOP Presidential candidate. 

 

Beats the $h! out of the fat, sloppy joe, sellout incumbents.

[Frisky Dingo]

You just had to go and upstage me didn't you?

J/k. Car is sick man, congrats.

I don't even get what's going on with the Republican party at this point. Its a circus of clowns

You just had to go and upstage me didn't you?

J/k. Car is sick man, congrats.

 

 

Thanks. The truth of the matter is that I have been talking about this for a while but wanted to wait til Spring was here. This week.. 60 degrees and 70s are coming back to MD.. I'm pumped that Sasha and Rose will get some playtime

Awesome buy man.

But you gotta smoke at least ONE set of tires.

 

 

U kno I'm cheap. Hey!!! What are U gonna do that the new GS is coming? U trading in the C6 GS or what?

My GS is LONG gone, man... I got the fleet down to one vehicle these days. I've really been looking at the Camaro pretty closely, but until oil rebounds a bit more solidly than it has to this point I'm playing it safe.

Didn't kno. I gotcha tho. I guess oil prices effect U quick fast considering your current career. 

[daves87rs]

Love the new car! Congrats!

Yup. But I suspect I'm gonna wind up with an Alpha-platform something or other in the garage in due course. MT just did a comparo with the CTS VSport and it smoked the Audi and Lexus it was up against.

Saw that. What thru me thru a loop was that Toyota charges (as tested) $87,000 for a 467HP car that is ugly as f@#k. To put that into perspective.. it costs just $13K less than my VSeries with almost 180 more HP

The CTS-V actually starts lower than Motor Trend's listed base price of the Lexus. That's a no-brainer if I ever saw one.

Insane. EFFIN' INSANE!!!

[smk4565]

Not to mention the Lexus 5 liter V8 is a torqueless wonder.  The GS-F makes like 380 lb-ft of torque.  That car should cost $65-70,000 based on performance.  Although it is still ugly inside and out.

[Thed]

Per his sig, Casa has modified his car to make 6406 HP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cmicasa the Great]

Thanks Thed... 

 

Took her out for dinner last night

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Might be time for a 4 Car Garage. The Nox can stay outside

[Thed]

Love that color so much. 

 

It almost makes the Corvette look dull in comparison.

SWEET RIDES
