Great looking car and congrats on the purchase. Price sounds right as well! I know in my area a 15k dollar Z is going to be beat crap and have 150k miles on it.
Oh and maybe lower it down just a smidge. I now have a picture to show my son what a normal height C5 looks like.

Welcome, and thanks for sharing your buying adventure with us! I was in your shoes just one year ago, finally owning a Corvette after longing for one since I was five!
That looks like a real beauty, and hope you two have many great miles together!
