Default Saying Goodbye

Well folks, it is time to say goodbye. I have been an active member of this forum for over 9 years. I recently sold my 2003 ECS H/C car. Sold all my extra parts to folks in the Parts For Sale section. I have learned so much from everybody here. What a great resource. Thank you all.

While I am saying goodbye, I am not leaving the Corvette community. I just purchased a new to me used 2006 VR Z06 with 6500 mi. I will take delivery of it next week. Looking forward to continuing to be an active part of the Corvette community over on the C6 section. All my best.

Congrats on the new Z06! Post some pics on this thread after you take delivery! Sounds like a good deal with only 6500 miles!

I am glad you are leaving, this region of the forum is not big enough for the two of us.

Nice upgrade and enjoy it!
