Getting my first Vette on Tuesday!
Hello all,
Name is Kelly. When I was 11 my dad had a 1981 Vette, I loved it. That same year a Barbie of mine was lucky enough to get her own Vette. I have wanted once since then, and on Tuesday of this week, the dream becomes a reality.
Picking up a used 2016 Z51 2LT, with a few snazzy upgrades. I am beyond excited. My husband and I have been working on this for more than two years. We sold our 2011 Camaro, we bought two cash cars, we bought a house, we paid off a leased car, and we paid off all our credit card debt to get here. Nothing like getting out of debt, to go right back into it.
Anywho, I am pumped. Watching videos on how to take care of it. I am sure it won't feel real until I get to drive it. I haven't ever driven a Vette and I bet it's pure magic. We loved our Camaro, and the Camaro community, can't wait to join the vette community. I already asked for advice and had several very helpful responses. So thank you all, and see you on the road!
