Default First Pics Ever......(more pics added at post #25)

After Carpal Tunnel surgery two weeks ago, I had Zaino Mobile Detail of Frisco, TX. put on the first coats for me. Amazing, amazing, amazing.....Absolutely, the C6 is everything it is built up to be and more. Performance, handling, and believe it or not, comfort. I have some mods to put on as soon as football is over this week. I'll post the pictures soon. Thanks Corvette Forum for all of the suggestions, follow-up, and persistence that you provide new members like me. : Happy New Year

That is a fine looking automobile. It's just unfortunate that you have to keep it in such a shabby neighborhood.

Default Welcome C6Bill!

Man, you could shave in that thing! The shine looks great as does the Texas state flag in the rear.

Looks great and keep it that way!
