Hi,
It is rare to have vette but it is not so rare as the new GTR or Veyron.
But yes there is a lot of looks when i ride
There is some cars but we have our vette forum from fiew months.
Before that we were on f-body forums. Parts we can buy in europe it is not so big problem. But for me own it is a problem to get some tuning stuff. I have no time to do it myself so i have to pay someone who will get parts for me from US. and the cost is mostly 2 times more than in the us.

Good to see you on the Forum. I'm in UK
Care to share the primary differences?

I know lights are one of them...

Here in the US we drag race on dry pavement!

I guess you guys in Poland do things a little different!

Cool to see people from other countries that share the same love for Corvettes!

Nahh, the water keeps the tires cool and makes them last longer.

Welcome to the forum Lukas. I have not been here long, but I am a part of many forums, and I can say this is one of two places I enjoy visiting frequently as most people here seem very helpful and cool! Stick around awhile, you will enjoy the reads and all the help! Most of the vendors are pretty straight too.

Welcome to the forum. How do you drive a Corvette in Poland...the roads have to be the worst on the planet and theft, I think the car would be stolen with you in the drivers seat even? I have relatives in Torun, Poland and go there regularly..never ever would I drive my Corvette there. Greetings, Rob

There is a lot of places to drive. Like other countries, we have great roads and bad roads. Risk of stealing the car is allways, byt it is not like in 90's now this problem is not so big i think it is the same like other countries in west europe. In Toruń the streets are not so good you are right. But in Szczecin streets are good and there are fiew places for streetracing
