Congrats and welcome. Nice color combination with the black and red. Better get some gloves, or you're going to have dishpan hands from washing it all the time.

Thats a hot color combo, is it a Z51/6 Speed car? That color combo in Z51/6speed was what I was looking for with mine but I settled for Black interior since I couldn't find red at all.

Very nice. I also like the color combo. I recently picked up a 99 black/black. Red is the only interior I might have considered over the black. Enjoy your first Vette, this one is my first too and these past two weeks have been great.
