Sunny and 80s, PERFECT! Hoping to get some of that here soon. Been too chilly, dropping down into the 30s.

Our car show got canceled, but it was a great day for a "therapy cruise", so that's what we did! The park I work at is Sebastian Inlet State Park, 9700 south A1A Melbourne Beach. It's about 18 miles south of the 192 Melbourne causeway. There is a north side, main entrance, and the south side entrance over the bridge with a fishing museum, boat ramp, large camping area, and plenty to see on both sides. Here's an overhead pic of the park, the north side also has a swimming cove area for the kids and families. This is a summertime picture. It gets pretty busy in the summer when the kids are out of school. Great fishing too!!

I got my Rally Yellow ZL1 dropped off the day before Christmas. No accident, 2 owners. 99,800 miles. No typo. People might think im nuts but i got her for 22k from a dealer out of VA. Have been going over everything, just did the isolator swap, it had ZZP which while still a solid iso was making noise. Added the Eaton solid isolator, roof moldings on the way, new tires, removed the stickers on windshield, and im hoping to have her for a long damn time. Just sorting through things, took her out for a drive after the isolator!

Yeah it was pretty nice! But, this Thursday and Friday we will have mid 30's for overnight lows here where I am at!! I hate when it does that! But that's how our winters go most times. lol.

They sped up and I kept my own, caught up to them the next light, I was 2 cars behind them, light turns green everyone goes, except that one car with the tongue dragger, he was hanging out the window with his phone recording me coming up, I got beside them and gave her the ole WOT stab and just lit up the tires and smoked away! I let them catch up, he was still recording as I let them pass me, was pretty cool, got a thumbs up from him. Got to where I was going and was idleing through the parking lot and glanced over and this one guy with a huge smile on his face and a thumbs up was recording me poking through the parking lot. After I parked he came up and said he heard me coming and was hoping that I wasn't just passing through, he loved the sound and knew it was something awesome!! Made my day. All in a days enjoyment! Happens all the time. He are the pics from today. I know, enough already! She's just beautiful, and can't help myself, and love to share. Cheers everyone!! She's all wiped down, inside and out, and covered back up until next weekend..

How on earth was a dealer selling a ZL1 w/ 100k miles for $22K??

All I can figure is somehow the car was inventoried wrong. Either way, great purchase man! Good for you on snatching it up for SS money!

I didn't know Mace was still making those! I had a double take when I saw this post was from 2026, I thought I was looking at a 10 year old post for a second... I was lusting after a set then I bought my car 12 years ago, and back then they were impossible to find. Care to share any details?

They had my Z listed for 24 i got em down to 22k after all said and done.

Cars a 2013 Rally Yellow ZL1 with 6 speed manual, exposed carbon hood, sunroof, 99,800 miles. I just threw a eaton isolator, rotofab and about to slap new tires and other stuff on, ive been going through the whole thing. She showed up at 10pm the 23rd and i worked into the 24th on her immediately.btw with a ferrari (not mine) in an enclosed trailer and its been fun ever since.
Then i have a really nice almost 600hp camaro i hope to drive for awhile. I had been looking at 2005-13 C6's and C5Z06 but then this puppy with no accidents and two owners came available.

I NEVER thought id see a Z that low even with miles. And ive had 3 prior. This is hopefully the ZL1 i keep in my collection. Id replace the LSA one day if ever had to. Even if i flip it one day, WHAT A DRIVER for 22k
