Default forum newbie

hey guys- im new to the forum but wanted to drop a line and say hi. ive been lurking around for a few days and already learned a ton. im young (23) but no stranger to vette's. been detailing show vettes since age 10, had a 90, got the Z, went to 50th ann caravan to bowling green 2 summers ago from NY, belong to Club Corvette of Connecticut, and now have an 03 anniversary edition torch red z06 that i share with my pops. we picked it up last year at the Carlisle show (going 11 years strong). traded a black 90 coupe but that didnt hold a dime to the Z. absolutely love it and not a hint of buyers remorse!

its 99% stock except for a borla stinger exhaust, matching torch red z06 floor mats (makes the 2tone interior that much more ridiculous!), and a z06 trunk mat. here are a few pics--




check the interior!





thanks, just wanted to say hi.
