Hi Everyone -
I'm totally new to this forum. I purchased my first Corvette last week, It was love at first sight. I bought a very clean 2004 with 18,000 miles on it, black/black with a targa roof. Everytime I drive that car my heart races and my attitude meter goes up a few notches - does it ever stop? I'm thinking of a vanity plate that reads "REDMANE". It refers to my long red hair. Too corny????

Welcome to the Forum. THE place for Corvette people to be ESPECIALLY in Chicago in the winter. Congrats on your purchase. This IS the best time of the year to buy that Vette. Good job. Nice low mileage dream ride. Enjoy the hobby/lifestyle
