Hello,
impressive build list. There are many car shows out here in Tucson as well as Phoenix. The Tucson Camaro Club has around 50+ members, and we are a group of friends that get together once a month at different restaurants in Tucson, and talk about/plan different events and mods. We are part of a bigger club the AZAllGens which has over 500 members mainly in Phoenix. In the summer here car shows are at night because of the heat. Hope to see you out here, welcome.

North side meeting place for 4th car show Update:
There is a Roll Over on I-10 and Cortaro with one fatality. I-10 is closed right there at this time. We may need to take the frontage road to Ina.

Are you talking about the 4-pack in the center console? They're pretty much plug-n-play and snap in.
The A pillar gauges are a bit more work.

Z28

Sean, I saw that Z28 this week also. Those brakes are enormous and it is a good looking auto. What I found interesting was the additional $1700 gas guzzler tax added to the car's bottom line if you added A/C!

Looking at the tires they have a pretty limited life on them. From what I read 2000 miles is about the norm if the car is tracked often!

Think I'll keep my 1LE as I enjoy having a car to drive as opposed to having one in the garage, saving it for special days.

Talking about the a pillar gauges. And also does anyone have a heritage grill for sale? Looking to buy one. Will pay sale price if you have both top and bottom.

Had the first oil change done today, they installed the magnetic plug for me too. Mobil1 full synthetic, blah, blah, blah.

Yeah, as soon as Mark saw me strutting across the showroom floor he was all over me about the Z/28 sitting there! I told him $20,000 more for 105HP less than I have now ain't gonna cut it.

I thought it was over, until I got home and there was an email from Watson asking if they could be of more assistance in acquiring the Z/28! Shot an email back saying that when I hit the lottery they will be the first place I'll hit on my wish list. The Riccarro seats and ceramic brakes were nice though...

To many people, that extra $20K is well worth it....even with less horsepower. The LS7 is a gem of an engine. It's more exotic than the LSA and, in some ways, the LS9. The Z/28 is also filled with technology that's seen on 6 figure cars (DSSV shocks, carbon ceramic brakes, soft compound tires, helical gears in differential, etc). The Z/28 is basically the COPO of the road course.
