Well, the time has come, my friends. My '82 is up for sale here. I've also posted her on the trader site, but the ad on DC shows a price $1,000 lower. Drop me a note if you are interested.
The good news is, this is the last thing I need to do before I order/buy a new one. Maybe if I can get her sold before summer, I can take a trip to Wisconsin and pay Rick a visit. I stopped by his previous employer last year on my way back from the Detroit Auto Show, but it happened to be a day they were closed. Of course, I would much rather visit Ohio OR Wisconsin in summer, so perhaps this is working out for the best.
It's a shame I can't get another Gold one... Perhaps silver will be the best choice anyway. My wife keeps nudging me toward a silver coupe to match my dad's '86. I keep toying with the idea of a Z06, but don't know if I can justify the cost right now. She also likes the idea of the Z after seeing that Top Gear episode where they took the car from 0-180 in 5th gear alone. I believe her words were "Look honey, I can drive that one! I wouldn't even have to shift." The thought of 505 ponies under her right foot scares me...
