Default Another Newbe!

Hey all!

I am new to the board, but not Corvettes. I just sold my BMW Z4 and bought a Daytona Orange six speed coupe with nav. I also own a frame off restored 72 Ontario Orange coupe.

Once I drove the C6 I knew I had to have it! I look forward to learning many good things from you guys!
