Well today was finally the day. Two years and ten days after giving Stingray Chevrolet a deposit check on a "possible Z28", I picked up my ZL1 today along with afirehawk1. Keith thanks for posting your pictures here, it was a truly great day for both of us. See the "IT'S TWINS" for the dual delivery.

Let me introduce you to MAXINE. She is Crystal Red Tint with Exposed Carbon Fiber Hood, Polished Wheels, Sunroof, Suede Package Interior and Cargonet. My deepest thanks to the entire Camaro Team for designing and engineering a truly phenomenal vehicle and the entire Camaro Build Team in Oshawa for building a world class supercar.

I picked up Maxine at Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City, Fl. and drove her 240 Miles home. During whole ride I felt like Fbodfather was hiding in the car somewhere waiting to yell at me if I did not follow the break-in guidelines. It was a great ride home in a very special car. Thank you Chevrolet and enjoy the pictures.

Maxine saying goodbye! While driving home, she heard the cars racing at Sebring Raceway and just had to stop.

She wanted to do a few laps on the track before she went home but was told that car with as much power as her's were not allowed on the track. Something to do with too much grip and melting the track beyond repair. It was all very technical. She was very sad.

Maxine made it to her new home where she was introduced to her older cousin, Tiffany. The two of them should become best friends very soon. Once they stop bickering over garage space.

Stocks would be a better investment. Say instead of buying a '69 Camaro, you instead put $10K in some company we've all heard of like Disney, Boeing, or Coca-Cola. Today, you'd have something like $800,000 to a million dollars. Not even a '69 ZL1 would go for that much. Congrats on your purchase but I really hope you get that car out on the road and enjoy it.
