Default Finally got a C6!!!
After drooling, looking, and driving my dad's 06 vert, I finally bought one. I found it in Bowling Green of all places. 3lt auto with 7,500 miles.
I wasn't really ready to buy, as now I have to sell my 86 vert and my 00 TA vert.
Here are a few pics.
Looking forward to the mods
Shawn

Thanks for the compliments guys.
I have to fight off the chicks, we celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary this month
My wife and I drove to the museum just before we left Bowling Green, and snapped some pics, on a disposable camera. If they turn out good, I will post some.
