Default Today was the big day!

Hi!

Yesterday I was at the technical office with the Corvette who inspect the car, that I can get a licence for it in Austria. Everything was great, no issues.
Today was the big day, I got the licence plates! After that I went for a long ride you can imagine and how could I say: the car is awesome, the acceleration is awesome, the sound is awesome (pretty loud ) and I love it!

Here some pics after car-wash:

I bet most here would love to hear about the reactions you get from people while driving around. Even in the USA, Vette owners get nice crowd reaction, so I can only imagine the stares coming from your fellow Austrians.

it is great once you receive your car, waiting and hoping that all will be well when its being transported, and then waiting for it to approved to be driven in your country!!! congratulations, you will have many years of driving fun ahead of you.
