Its Here!!!
I am officially a new vette owner as of today! This is a 2004 C5 Spiral Gray, Hud, 13K miles. Sadly the transport service put a little scratch on the clear coat (did not go through) near the door. I have a great paint guy, so it should come right out. Great Car, Wow. This is my first Vette. I have already acquired a Corsa Touring exhaust from a great member (myc5toy). I can't wait to do more Mods.
The first "Mod", is to take off that ugly license plate!

I feel your elation! I, too, am a brand new Corvette owner who three weeks ago acquired a 2004 C5 Spiral Gray, Hud, with 1352 actual miles.
I've NEVER enjoyed driving a car more. I just turned 2000 miles on it!
