Been lurking the forums here for quite some time now. I finally bought my first Corvette a few days ago, a 2006 C6. It absolutely exceeds my expectations, and I feel zero buyers remorse!

Someone is going to have a great summer, and you got the right color.

Congrats & welcome! A beauty! I felt the exact same way along with

Looks good! Now start washing it because that color only stays clean for about 15 minutes.

A beauty for sure. Black takes a bit more work to keep sparkling but it is worth it. Congratulations.
