Before you Buy
After thinking that I researched enough, I thought that I had every thing all together BUT I must have stubbed my toe some where along the way.
The bottom line is besides a test drive, check out EVERY THING ie. switch functions, non factory wiring, codes EVERY THING from bumper to bumper. Do not over look ANYTHING.
Getting caught up with owning a Vette can get in the way of good investigation.
I might have stubbed my to but the sum-sum is that I was able to recover without paramount resolve.
Bottom line: REALLY investigate before you invest. Keep your excitement level in check before you write the check.

That's why a sticky was created on buying a C5. Lots of very good info there, including a comprehensive Corvette Buyers Checklist.
