53

2nd Corvette, 1st was a 1974 w/454 in 1981. Purchased 04 z16 new in 2004 sitting on the showroom floor like a lonely pup when the frenzy was on for the new C6. Did get a nice discount from GM & the dealer. Not much time to drive with my work schedule & complete mods, 6,700 original miles, did just manage to put on a set of Pfadt coil overs on that I purchased 6 months before they closed the doors. Looking forward to future mods as I find spinning the wrenches just as relaxing as taking it on a ride.

I think if i had this car @21-22 years old, i really think i would have killed myself, i feel like a father here, you guys are probably much more responsible than I was at that age, but treat it with respect guys, be careful.
I'm 50, I have an 02 Z, exactly as phinfan says, if I had this car when I was a youth, I'd be in the ground right now.
