Default Thanks CF(pics included)

Tried this yesterday with total failure Read the forum for about two months before settling on a 98 artic white coupe. im the 2nd owner and car is totally stock besides slotted rotors and hawk pads paid 13000 W/ 80343 miles well within my budget. With the help of the forum Cleaned Electrical grounds, changed oil sensor, cleaned ac ducts and installed a CLB all within 2 weeks of getting car. No mods so far only added Corsa exhaust tips and exhaust plate to hold me over until i decided on a catback. Number 1 thing on my list is to lose the wagon wheels U guys saved me a ton of $$$$ and i've learned alot being this is my first vette
Thanks again

this is a great forum, nice vette- your right wagon wheels are usually the first to go. Got rid of mine in a month, now on my 3 set of rims in 6 months.

holy crap, obviously new leather on those seats. That interior looks brand new for a car with 80k miles on it! Great buy!

The interior looks great, but is it smelly or somethin'? If not its gonna be with all those trees hanging from the light stalk.

Black out that Halo!

Really nice... however, go slow with the mods until you really know what you want out of the car. When I got my first C5 coupe, I went nuts. Chrome C5 wheels, corsa exhaust, intake mods, etc. Then I realized, I wanted different wheels, different exhaust, better suspension, more MORE power. I wasted a lot of money on the intake when I threw on N2o, wasted money on the Chrome C5 wheels when I got some aftermarket ones, wasted money on the corsa touring ex. 'cause I wanted it louder.. etc.

Then, I figured I'd just sell it and get a Z06. Wifey went a little

Love me my white. There's a ton you can do with it.

Here are pics of mine: http://www.flickr.com/photos/royelra...7613246309143/ I think the key with white is to keep it simple.
