2004 Corvette Z06. This is "my" car. I track it quite often at several road courses in the midwest. it's got everything. incredible high speed, low end torque that cannot be believed, and sticks to the track like glue(evidenced by it's 1G+ skidpad capability)

the Boxster S is primarily my wife's car, though it is a ball to toss around on the twisties here is cowtown country...

HI,

In addition to my Boxster, I own an '85 Lotus Turbo Esprit (85 -90 pts. Car - 31k mi. - 2nd. Owner), a '71 Datsun 240Z (90-95 Pts. Car - 21k mi. - Original Owner) and a '90 Protoform Formula Vee maybe 4000 miles - Original Owner. Pretty happy with my little group...

Happy Motoring!...Jim'99

That IS a nice group. I would love to see a pic of the Z.

My g/f drives the Boxster. My daily driver is an F150. My thrid Z car is a heavily modified, 400whp twin turbo 350Z that is a blast to drive but a headache to maintain. Waiting for the Cayman with the DSG tranny...I miss having a warranty.

Very clean looking Z. Nice to see one that has been taken care of. If you ever get the urge for a trip...we have an event each Spring in NC at The Tail of the Dragon.

Pic of 150+ Z's lining up for group shot.
Would like to get more 1st generation Z's to attend. Two fellows drove over 1K miles in a 1st gen and a Z32...both won their class.
