Default Offically my first corvette. 7-8-12

The paper work took a bit longer due to July 4th holiday but it was well worth the extra few days wait.

I got to drive away with my first corvette last Sunday (7-8-12). 2006 C6, Black, hard top, LS2, LT3, 73k miles for 23.5k dollars.

I find any excuse to drive it around in my college town I live in. I get so many turned heads . It's just an awesome feeling. Already had two guys ask about my car when I got out of the corvette in a parking lot.

I'll never forget the day I got my first Vette! In fact I posted the story here too! Congrats.

Oh, and I'll also never forget the day I sold it. Huge mistake. Should've kept it forever.

Congrats, she is a beauty. You should consider joining a club now that you are in the vette family. The lonstar corvette club is the lasrgest in the country and I have been a memeber for over 3 years now. Check out the website and see what you think. We actually have our monthly meeting this Saturday starting at 11:30am. Send me a pm if you are interested. Again, congrats.
