New C6 Owner
On 12/26/2008 I picked up my new 2009 CRM LT4 coupe (Christmas present to myself). It is my first Corvette and is my DD. Traded in my 2001 Jaguar XKR. It is automatic with NPP, F55, Nav, Chrome Wheels, and 2.73 gears.
So far (only 600 miles) it has been a blast. A real fun machine. I have added a few cosmetic mods already. LED color matched rear third brake light, color matched door handles, Vette Bin and Partition, and color matched brake light louvers. Will be adding a few more mods as the budget allows. I am thinking of adding a clear bra, side vent screens, powder coated calipers, and maybe a front screen. I am going to wait until the warranty expires before doing any engine or tuning mods. I have heard that GM is cracking down and voiding warranty work if there are mods that may have impacted any problem.
Anyway, I just wanted to say hi.
Edited: Boy this is a tough crowd.
Okay, here are I some pictures. (Thanks to FACADE-c6)
