Finally, after lusting after these cars for years, I am now the proud owner of a slightly used (2700 miles) TR 2004 C5. I have been reading posts on your forum for a couple of weeks, and it would appear that this is the place to be for Corvette owners. Looking forward to sharing thoughts, ideas, etc. with all.

Welcome to CF and congrats on the new ride. You are right, this is "THE" place to learn and help other Vette owners. Learn how to use the search engine and try to get as much info from that approach as possible--there is tons of info in the archives. You will find that must folks are very willing to help.

Don't forget to wave.
