Congrats, I just bought mine 2 months ago. My main concern was getting in and out of it with my old bones but a younger vette owner showed me how to do it. Just sit down first and then slide your legs in, getting out slide your legs out then just stand up! Works just like buttah.........Have fun!

Welcome to the family! ISN'T IT GREAT. We older and wiser guys need to teach the youth about patience.

Friend of mine was on his way to a corvette event one time and this guy came over his two way radio and said look at this couple coming up on your left. My buddy said as they past he looked and they were in a corvette vert with the top down and well up in age. They had a custom tag that said it all.. "AT LAST" you're never too old for a corvette
