To funny, I made the same move 10 days ago!
I sold my 05 S2000 that had a lot of money, sweat and tears into it and picked up a 99 FRC!! Surprisingly I'm not as sad as i thought I would be. I'm enjoying the new personality and driving feel with all of her quirks. So far no regrets!!

Once I get this steering column lock issue sorted I'll have better pictures of my new toy!!
Glad to see I'm not the only defector

That looks like a pretty aggressive exhaust on here already.
I'd go for some new wheels first, maybe some c6 Z06 shocks and Z51 sway bars, then HIDs.
BTW make sure you have a column lock bypass installed, and only use top teir gas.

I like the black with red stripes. Looks good! Thought about some myself but I'm scared I won't like them.

Two nice looking Corvettes. I like the black with the red hood stripes, and front plate lettering, and the red Corvette with the black wheels.
