".....After driving the Mustang for several years (which I did like), the Vette feels like I'm driving some kind of super car (which some will argue I am)."

Congratulations on your new Corvette....drive safe and enjoy! I do feel the Corvette is a super car but there's no argument from me.

Congrats. Best of both worlds woud be Vette as toy & Mustang as daily. I miss my last 4V Cobra. Wish I could another one that isn't a pile and/or overpriced to daily drive.

I had forgotten you sold that off the forum.

Forgot to ask; two things that are near and dear to C6 Gen, have you bought your Lloyd's mats yet and when will you do the first Zaino application??
