Default First Vette! 1996 Coupe
Purchased my first vette this past weekend! Great example of a 96 and only 1 of 320 produced that year in Dark Purple Metallic!

68,000 miles! As of right now I think everything is stock besides the wires (as you pointed out) and the exhaust.

Thank you and the C7 is my dads (managerman on the forum). He bought his in December of 2014.
I immediately caught the corvette fever and have been saving up ever since! The saying is true, like father like son
