Default Finally a Corvette Owner

I've been idle on this forum, reading about Corvettes for the last 2yrs. I finally bought my 1st Vette. A Black 2001 Z06 with 12k on the clock. Now I just have to start modding it since it is bone stock.

I'd post a pic but I can't figure out how.

Hope this works!







ja03c5 - Thanks for the help! That wasn't too hard. The interior looks better than the picture shows. Previous owner liked his Armoral.

Beautiful ride! May I recommend you take it to your local GM dealer (preferably one who has Vette expertise) and have a baseline check done on it. I did the same when I bought my 2000 vert and found that my car had a couple of minor problems that needed tending to. I have a folder in which I keep every blessed repair and accessory invoice. I also use MyGMLink.com to organize my maintenance records.

You also might consider purchasing the sticker and build sheet from the Corvette Museum so you can see what options she came with.

In the meantime, DRIVE and ENJOY! And here's a wave from NJ.
