Bad Coupe in the Badlands [Pics... dial-up beware]

[FloridaChris]

Well I hit 500 miles just before I got to the the Badlands (South Dakota) today. What a wonderful place to stretch the new Coupe's legs for the first time. I was there real early and the park was completely deserted. I had the track...er..ah..the loop road all to myself. Pure heaven. Here's a few pics.

Chris, NICE pics! What camera are you using?

The camera is nothing particularly special. It is a Sony DSC-T1 5.0M. I am not shooting at full resolution though.

Sure looks better lowered doesn't it? I go back to Woodhouse next week for Motons and lowering.

 

[Finally got it !]

You've got to love that road sign. It always makes for some fun driving.

What is that off to the right, and just behind the sign? Antelope? Deer? Elk?

Hit one of those at 150 and your toast.

Wow! Great pics! Thanks for posting. Couldn't ask for a better stretch of road to break in the new snake.

Chris - Looks Great. Congrats.

What is involved in lowering the car? Whats the cost?

 

[Firewater]

I don't suppose I could get you to post some high-res versions of pics 3 and 4...could I?

I am having Eibach springs and Motons installed. This setup allows for adjustable ride height and shock rates. The cost is around $5K installed.

Those were some kind of goats I think. They were quite timid unlike these donkeys that I came across later in the day in the Black Hills.

Anyone who seriously says they prefer the Z06 over this is missing some screws, imo...

Great car!

Wow, that pic really captures the way it feels living in California,

Re: Bad Coupe in the Badlands

Awesome Photos!!!!!!! Love the badlands. Those would be some Panhandling Jackasses on Iron Mountain Road getting too close to your coupe...

Let us know how the motons and lowering affect the coupe - and of course we'll need pics.
