Nice car. I second that garage comment. If not a garage then a nice carcover, and make sure to wash every single time before covering. Keep that thing out of the sun at all times when not being driven
I'm sure you want to hear about real mods though, so..
1. New tires if those are stockers or are old. Or a wheels/tires package if you plan to get new wheels anyway.
2. cold air intake
3. exhaust
4. dyno/street tune by an LSx pro
Lay off that throttle around corners and you'll be good.
that's not a garage !!!! that's a Corvette living room !!!!!!!!!!!
Over compensation for living in the same apartment complex for 25 years and burying several Corvettes as a result!

You have to really be careful using a car-cover out here. The worst paint damage I ever experienced was on a 1993 Diamante where I had at an apartment with a car-cover. The wind/dust storms come fast and hard out here and can last for hours or longer. With that Diamante, one night (the first week I had used the car-cover), the wind picked up and blew the dust and grit up from underneath and completely covered the car. Then as the wind continued to blow, the car cover just acted as a sanding block against the paint. Without the car cover, the paint would have just got the usual West Texas sand-blast job.
Car covers are great for sun, tree sap, etc., but with the wind storms we get out here, not so much.
Having had 7 Corvettes in Midland over the years, I would say the most important thing to have is a "garage"! That is what caused most of the "wear and tear" on my first Corvettes - living in an apartment. The direct sunlight in the daytime eats up everything and one good dust storm and you are starting over on the paint correction!
That's a definite beauty man!! if you could show me a few tips and tricks I would be honored! I want my paint to look like this

Basically I'm stuck between new wheel combo or an exhaust lol. I know I want a turn but later on after a bit more mods so I can plan things out a little better! Really stuck on Zr1 reps or c6 spyder's, too many people around here with c6 Zo6 reps
