1st time Vette owner
I'm a 1st time Vette owner. It's taken me a couple of weeks to post this news, with pics. I bought an '01 Silver Coupe, beige int., 41K mi, auto, with extended warranty GMPP until Aug. '09.
I'm the guy who was trying to decide between an '93 Vette & a new Miata. Originally I was looking at an '86 Vette, but the wife, who was initially against the purchase altogether, wanted me to get a new Miata to avoid repair costs. She finally encouraged me to spend more on something newer. Hence, I worked my way up from an '86 to a '93 to an '01 Vette. Thanks to all those who talked some sense into me.
First time posting pics. I hope they come out OK. Thanks for everyone's help.
