Default Finally a Corvette!
I've only been waiting about 50 years and I finally own a Corvette. I drove home my 2008 today and I am totally thrilled. Here it is. Only 17K miles!

You will feel yourself grin every time you climb in and punch the ignition ... Congrats on your great-looking Vette!

Congrats, looks like a very clean ride. Enjoy the go button!!! Other wise known as the ignition.

One more thing, your first, read the owners manual. These cars are fabulous, but you don't know what you don't know. Enjoy
