Default Waiting stinks !!

Well, I've finally done the deal. This will be my 3rd C4. This time, a '94 coupe.

The car belongs to my best friend. He lives 450 miles from me. Money and titles have changed hands, insurance is done. All that's left is to go get the thing !

Unfortunately, since he does live as far away as he does, and due to our conflicting work schedules, it will be the end of February before I am able to go get it !

I've driven 'er before and she's fun fun fun. This C4 marks a couple of firsts for me.

My first red Corvette. My first 6-speed. I'm excited. This waiting is going to drive me bonkers. Anyway, here she is in all her glory.

Looks like the side gilsl are for a 95/96 car. Definitely not the 94 style?

Didn't the 91-95 ZR-1's and the 96's paint that area between the side marker/turn light and the park/fog lamps painted body color? I really like it. I would consider painting that area on mine body color. The gils definately look like 95-96 style.

Sweet ride, I know what you're going through.
