Welcome to the CF "club." There's so much you'll learn here. Prepare to abandon all other activity in your life. You'll see what I mean soon...

BTW, white is a very nice color...but have you considered any other colors for your purchase? I heard a rumor that Torch Red is somewhat popular. And that's a totally unbiased opinion, I might add.

Interior is black and red. 22,000 miles. I read somewhere that there were only 133 sw Zs built for 01. So that kind of caught my attention. But this is where I'm at right now. I have to drop my current ride before I could bring it home. Hope it all times out just right....

Heres my current ride for sale

It looks like there were 352 SW Z06's produced for 01. The interior is a great combo with exterior. Here's a great source for Corvette production numbers and general info...

I wish you the best in getting your vette!
