Awesome.


Except for the front tag.

NJ requires a front tag also, but I refuse.

You have an excellent choice in color!! I swore I would never fall for the C5 "all Corvettes are Red." Swore I would never buy a red car. However, once I saw my new Torch Red, I was in love. I've popped a few eye-***** at the local Costco and Target.

Congrats! Regardless of color, a great car!
