Very cool Christmas gift!
You know you have great friends when they "get you" enough to gift you this!






It even looks like the carbon fiber on my car!!!!

The really cool thing is I am a woman and this is one of my best female friends. We went out to eat with our husbands. We are all car people. Maybe that's why she understands my watch obsession? Couldn't ask for a better friend. We can go weeks without visiting, but we are always there for each other.

I don't know if I can find her something she likes this much next year but I'll try! I did good for her birthday.

YES!! How is it as a street car? I've heard they're a little unforgiving. I've been contemplating a C6 ZR1 lately but I really love the newest viper. Awesome car!

Not a car for the feint of heart, but I love driving it. It only comes out on pretty days.
