I love it!
Here is something cool (maybe) - My Dad was a GM brass hat back in the day. He also handled press cars for the media (1984-1986) in the N.E. Florida area.
He also got a new car every 5,000 miles or so from GM AND he bought one once a year on a special program.
In 1985...we had the very first IROC-Z off the trailer in Florida (production model). It was special order and purchase through his program for my Mom...AND, he also got a bright yellow one for his company car. We had a pair of IROC-Zs in the driveway for a few months in 1985. Hers was black with red interior.
One day while I was riding in the back, my dad thumped the throttle in traffic and ripped the tires...and leaned over and said...
"the muscle car is back...."
That made my day!
I got my driver permit and drove home at 15 years old...in that black Iroc-Z. I drove it a million miles in the garage listening to the radio and dreaming of being on the open road...when I was 15.
LOVE these cars....wish I had room and time for another. As much as I love the LS for many reasons...so glad to see the basic TPI (even with the ram you are installing) and L98 type V8 rocking between the strut towers.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
