Default Just saying hello

I Joined very long time ago and never said Hey. I'm new to posting and had been just lurking various sites for years, sorry. I always felt like I was standing in a room full of people talking and never said anything and didn't think anyone saw me. I think its about time I contribute what I can to all the sites I have been looking at from the outside, if I can. I'm from Brick NJ. I will try to get my thing on the side of this post updated with some info and maybe an avitar at some point. I'm not a big paint perfectionist but I am in to performance and would like to get into everything C5. some interior mods, exterior detailing and or finding out alot more about it to keep my newer black 2003 conv Vette looking, handling and going fast as I possibly can via constrained financial resources and the overall approach to the car. I have a white 1990 conv that has its own daily driver 197,000 mi issues but I'll also try and post this to the C4 section with an apology because this is where I started lurking and with all the miles on it I'm sure I can contribute a good amount. Thanks for everything, I have learned alot from this C5 forum in advance of my buying the 2003 in late august and I'm sure I will learn alot more from you guys. I'm sorry again for not opening my mouth up sooner.

Welcome and your right about the Forum, this place has everything you can ever want to know about your C5, from maintenance to mods and way too many opinions on Zaino and catbacks.
