On board for the first time
well after carefully reading the forum for nearly a year, i finally pulled the trigger and joined one of the most informative places on the web to discuss one of the greatest bargains in the sports car world. i truly hope, that my past vette experiences and general 'carguy' knowledge can help 'someone out there', spur some thought or, more often than not, help me to better understand the nuances of the c5. you are a great bunch of enthusiasts and i look forward to a good exchange of opinions in the future.
have a great Christmas!
God bless you, all!
and, yes, i do wave!
Bill
