i like that car.

 

[RebelGTP]

Wow... holy shit, he has car number 00001!

 

[Dasfinc]

Wow... holy shit, he has car number 00001!

IIRC he won the auction for it. (Charity auction for car #1)

 

[IDAFC21]

yeah, when barret jackson was out at scottsdale earlier this year

Very nice. I know he doesnt drive cheaper cars like we do, but I did chuckle at the fact that the Corvette is the only car that has HUD.

I LOLed at the HUD remark as well... I think I am going to go comfort mine... it thinks it's less than a HUD now after that remark...

He probably meant within newer cars, which still isn't true but you can't expect the guy to have all that useful information in his head about steam-powered tricycles and still remember that a 2000 Grand Prix has heads-up display.

HUD is available in a bunch of BMW's now, too.

Hence my "he doesnt drive cheaper cars like we do" comment.

[bikrboy128]

i thought dave ressler won the ZR1 with vin code 001.....

 

[sickmint79]

didn't watch vid, hope it's better than his other car reviews which i've found to be pretty painful

 

[Runtz52]

yes the .002 seconds it takes to reach full boost, that thing is so sick, i cant believe $60,000 for a gallon of that paint

at least if you buy one of them, then have to go delivering Pizza to support the fuel bill for it, you won't have to put the sign on top... magnetic signs don't stick to Carbon fiber...

I think he won the one that was the only ZR1 to come in that LeMans Blue color.

I'd still kind of expect him to know that other cars have HUD. GM's only been using it for the past 11 years

[IDAFC21]

I think it was the Turbo Grand Prix

 

[RebelGTP]

I think it was the Turbo Grand Prix

then it would be longer than 11 years...

 

[Euro]

then it would be longer than 11 years...

89? It's just coming up on 11 years.

 

[Fish]

89? It's just coming up on 11 years.

Just coming up on 10 years.

 

[RebelGTP]

89? It's just coming up on 11 years.

rly:

89-99 = 10 years
99-09 = 10 years

let's see...

hmmm...

| 10
|+10
