Default Getting it Saturday!!!

I cant wait, this is the first time for me to own a corvette. I am getting a 2002 quicksilver Z06. Driving approx. 200 miles to pick the beauty up. I am still new with the stick shift. Hopefully I wont stall the car "too" much. LOL
:D :D :D

Congrats on your new Z. Remember the 500 mile breakin. Varied rpms and no wide open throttle. You will love it. :cheers:

Congrats...Also watch the brakes during break in..No sudden stops, if you can help it. I've read that the 6-speed is a little stiffer on the 2002. Just take it easy and you'll be fine.
