Default New Car Pics

I just picked up my first vette last weekend, a 98 6 speed. I took some pics and a few turned out cool with the storm approaching, so I thought I would share.

Anyone have any thoughts on if black zr1s would look good?

Nice clean looking vette. Don't you just love those stickers they make ya put in the windows... Search a "wheels" thread here and you should come up with a lot of examples, some on white. I would tend to go with the C5-Z06 wheels rather than the ZR1's. JMO.
Have fun with your new ride

Here's one example - http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1733317

Welcome to the Forum, Brandon. You'll like it here. Lots of good info.

Your car looks exactly like mine, except for the BSM's, and I have Y2K Thin Spokes. I've added you to my "White List". A compilation of Forum members who have white cars. Check it out!
