Though I haven't had my '07 FX35 Sport for awhile, I know this board always appreciated cars. Here are a few shots of my '08 Corvette.

LS3 - 436HP, 428 Torque
Jetstream Blue
3LT
Dual-Mode Exhaust
6-Speed
Chrome Wheels
Navi

Pretty exciting stuff. Picked it up with 32K mi, immaculate condition.

(If the photos don't show up, they're also in my garage section).

i drove one of these recently with allot of excitement and ended up with dissapointment. It had a performance lag (throttle response) the steering wheel felt really light. I guess z06 supercharged will excite me..
 
Did you drive an automatic with the paddle shifters? The paddle shifters in the older (05-07, I think) automatic Vette's are notorious for shift lag. Obviously no lag with the 6-speed manual.
 
Thanks. I liked both the Jetstream Blue and LeMans Blue (darker/navy) colors. The Jetstream Blue is reportedly the rarest color of those years (I think "inferno orange" is the rarest of the new ones).
