A big hello to the group. Name is Eric. I live 20 miles north of Daytona Beach in Palm Coast.
I just bought my first Corvette, a Red 2004 Z-06 that just came off a lease with only 10,000 miles.
My prior cars have been mostly European sports cars ranging from a 1958 Jaguar XK-150, an early 1750 Alpha Spider (remember the movie "The Graduate"), a few BMW's including a 3.0 Z3. I had a 1994 Camero Z-28, a Silverado, a Dodge Magnum with a hemi, several motorcycles but never owned a 'Vette.
This Z-06 is a blast. I replaced the OEM tires with Michelin Pilot Sport II tires with the hope we get some rain.<BG>
The dense smoke which covered my wife's pick-up with ash have kept me off the road since I put the new tires on but gave me a chance to do a proper detailing. I use Klasse sealant and glaze, Forever Black on the tires, Simichrome polish on the chrome wheels and Lexor leather cleaner then conditioner on the seats. Wow it looks great!
Eric
