It's been fun... sold the TL

It was a fast 18 months and 38,000 miles with the TL, and absolutley loved the car. But I am now in a van pool and not driving 110 miles per day. So I replaced the TL with something a bit more fun....

I will still be hanging around in the MDX forum.

Shoot, if I had a Z06 I'd be driving 300 miles per day...I'm sure that's an amazing car to drive. Enjoy.

To clarify, the 2000 Coupe in my signature is this one.

The other car is a 2004 Z06 Commemorative Edition. The Coupe will replace the TL as the daily, the Z06 will be the weekend toy. The base Corvette comes as a Coupe or Convertable, the Z06 is the pictured body style only. And by the way, they both get better MPG than my TL. We took the 2000 to Bowling Green Ky Memorial Day weekend and averaged 31.4 for the trip.

I was gonna say this. Our 09 vette gets 32 mpg on the highway...cruise at 70 at 1600 rpms. Also, insurance is cheaper on the 09 vette than our 09 m45...

Not sure how the z06 compares though.
