Default My new '13 coupe (Pics!!)

After months of study and research, I took delivery of a 2013 coupe 1LT Artic White Ebony interior with the black Aluminum Q8B wheels. This is my first performance car (previous car: 1999 4Runner since I was 16, I'm 29 now). I have had the car for just over a week and washed her yesterday.

Thanks to everyone on CF for answering my newbie questions! I'm sure more will arise as the weeks and months go by.

Here are the pics I took today.















Thats my beautiful wife in the above pic. I was quite surprised when we were looking to get a new car, I came up with the idea of getting a Vette and she was 200% in favor of it!

We seem to be outside the age of the typical Vette owner and gladly so. We both are enthralled with this car and enjoy driving a vehicle that really makes a statement everywhere it goes.

Arctic White rocks! Nice job. There's nothing else quite as sweet as a brand new Corvette, eh?

nice contrast.if they used the same brake pads on the 13 as they did on the 12 you will want to change them with the black wheels.
