Congratulations and enjoy your new ride. I don't see leaves on the trees so you must live somewhere north. I'm glad you have some sunny weather to enjoy the car.

I saw the thread in the for sale forum. Congratulations! I also have an 02 Z06, it is my dream car. Careful with getting to know the car, that power can come on fast and surprise you. Especially if you have older tires that have become hard or don't grip well. Remember, TC/AH is your friend. Welcome to the family of corvette owners, and don't forget to wave back at its when we see you on the road
