Default Less Than a Week....
After waiting 9 months for my '05 to be built this was EASY....
Last Tues. I decided the family needed another Corvette (takes two Vettes to transport a family of three..) So I looked at some dealer inventories and found exactly the car I wanted... Flew to Philidelphia..

The Forum Dealer had a driver waiting for me ...So off to the Dealers lot..

Lots to choose from....!!


Picked up my Jetstream Blue Vert and drove south toward warmer climates..

Found "topless" weather in Georgia...!!


A GREAT experience and a great car...!!!
(going to keep my Museum delivered, soon to be modified, ,'05)....

Congratulations on your new ride. She's a beauty! Looks like you had a great ride home. Thanks for the pics...and nice color choice. Now you have two Vettes to wash every week. Enjoy!

That is always nice to do the fly n drive. It lets you get to know your car better and to get the itch of wanting to drive it out of your system for a couple of days.

Great color and love the Vert's.
