Default First Corvette

Greetings
I am saving up to buy a Corvette.
I am looking for a low milage standard one. a 2006 or newer.
I don't want a dual mode exhaust, since I will put a hitch on it for my
bikes.

Should I get an extended warrenty for it?

If so, how much do they cost?

What is a good company to get it from?

Thanx

lots of CF members have recommended buying the GMPP from Dennis Fitchner at Fitchner Chevrolet (forum supporting vendor)

cost is dependent on the exact car and terms of the plan you purchase

I am going to let some of our esteemed members who like to answer these questions that tend to shake the heads of others, myself included.

Default first corvette towing

Hi
Thanx for the replies.

Towing my 1948 Harley Davidson panhead motorcycle will look worthy
to be towed by a Vette, especially when they match colours.

I am assuming this is a joke. Next time you look for a Vette look under the back to find a place to put the hitch. Wait, I will save you the time, you wont find one. Get a Mustang.
