Default New Guy w/questions....

Hi! just purchased a 99 vette and can't wait to pick it up. It's raining in the east so it sucks so I told the dealer I'll pick it up on Thursday with the forecast is sunny and nice. I did own a 89 vette a couple of years ago but I'm lost with the C-5's. Hopefully I can get some great info from the folks here. Thanks

welcome!

If you spend any length of time here, you'll find more information than you can possibly digest in five lifetimes. No matter what you are curious about, someone here's got an answer. This place is great for learning. Congrats on the new 99, and be sure to post pictures when you can!

2 Worlds apart they are

Your drive back will be incredible - the ride quality is dramaticaly different and the power is very linear and pulls fantasticly

It is much more plush in the interior and it is way quieter in there to

Just crank the tunes and enjoy and let us know when you're back - you might have some questions from the ride back we can address!

Thanks,Matt
