My first car
I couldn't be happier with my first car, a gorgeous 2002 with only 50K miles on it. Been waiting to buy one for years and it's awesome to finally be a part of the club! Now here comes the tricky part of a 20 y/o avoiding speeding tickets in a red vette...

Start living the dream, and remember you can, but you won't speed.

It's not really "tricky" to not get a ticket, just don't speed and obey the laws and you'll be O.K.!
P.S. That's a great looking Corvette, My first one [1960 w/2-4's] was red also! Back in 1966!

Ramps are a favorite play place, just be smart!!

Congrats on the new car. You got the best color! 
I am amazed how some buy a Corvette and say the never speed. Corvettes are fast and most drive them fast!
Again, congrats!

Great car, love the color. Just don't get stupid with it and you will be fine. Learn how to drive and handle that car before you decide to hammer it. It could kill you!!! Getting a ticket will happen, took me 15 years with my car, but yes it will happen.

Nice lookin' car. Wish I would have been smart enough to buy a Vette when I was 20. But then again I probably wouldn't be here typing this now. You have some pretty fun roads in Colorado. Have fun and be safe.
