Bought my first Corvette!
After years of watching, envying, and dreaming I have finally bought my dream car! I have had a 97 Trans Am for over 7 years and built to over 450 HP but it never filled my desire for a 'Vette. I picked up a 98 C5 6SPD targa top black on black with 70,021 miles on it. Already equipped with chrome C6 Z06 wheels and a Pioneer AVIC-Z1 Nav system. Everything else is stock. Clean title and got it for $14k! If anyone is trying to move some bolt-ons, headers, or a cat-back let me know. Likewise I officially have a beast of a Trans Am for sale if anyone is looking.
