Man, that blue is gorgeous! The red calipers and polished wheels really make it pop.

Bruce, has your brother taken the Camaro out to the Pavillions yet?

Charley........I'm sure that is of no importance to you because you would never even think of exceeding the legal posted speed limit........would you....

He's taken it out a couple of times...not recently though. I think the last time it was out there was about a year ago...He's out of town quite a bit...

I definitely like his Z06 with the polished wheels too!

That picture of the electron blue C5 ZO6 sends chills down my spine! I've battled a few times with a couple fairly stock E-Blue ZO6's on street tires at Memphis quite a few times, and been stung plenty...the Yellow Submarine can usually pull 'em to about the 1000' mark, but then aerodynamics and weight (or lack of it for the ZO6) takes over and it's like those cars are shot out of a cannon...our ETs were usually close, but they'd put a couple MPH on me on the big end...reckon I'll just give a free pass to these monsters...!

This is "just" the C6 coupe, but it is still pretty bad a$$.

Check out C6 Ride & C6 Engine here:

It's from back in February in my nephew's C6.

With 500hp and that low weight the car will border on uncontrollable. The less than "gifted" guys that turn off the computer controls are going to get in trouble....real fast.
