Default First Corvette

I found this forum by chance and have loved reading the great topics you guys bring so i decided to join. I have be able to get my father into cars and he has purchased a 03 Z06 and i am the primary driver of it and let me tell you it is a rush, one of the best feelings. So i am just saying hello and i am happy to be apart of this forum. I will have pictures up later when i figure out how to do it.

:cheers:

It is black and stock besides a new airbox, but i think we aren't going to do many upgrades because we are going to wait for the 05 Z06.

I am also a first time Corvette owner and wanted to post a quick message. I went the other direction (from totally stock) and purchased a 2003 Mallett Z06 in Electron Blue. It is a great car!! I sent it back to Mallett to have a few more things done to it such as changing the interior to all black (it was part Torch Red) with sport seats, making the engine 6.1 Liter with a different cam and improved flow cats. I have already found some very useful topics on this forum such as the rear compartment partition to help reduce noise from the back. I just wanted to say hello and look forward to great ideas and hope I can be helpful too. :seeya
