Posted this in the intro section but wanted to say Hi to all the C5 owners.

Lurking since we purchased our first Vette in April.

We bought a 2001 Quick Silver coupe with 28,000 miles on it.
We have enjoyed driving and showing off our first Vette.

The addiction has begun....................
Terry & Lisa

Welcome aboard!! Congrats on the new coupe. I love my coupe and still, after over four years, feel like it's the best car purchase I've ever made. Can't beat the smiles per mile.

This forum is great and yes....quite addictive.
