Very nice. If you are ever in Omaha attending a car show, let me know and maybe we can meet. It's always great to meet other Corvette enthusiasts.

The orange vette looks great! Nice tasteful mods, and a very well put together video.

But a college kid who had a Porsche 911 Turbo S? Must be nice to have a lot of parental support. I wasn't as lucky, had to work my butt off and save up my pennies till I was 28 and had my own house before I could buy a Corvette lol

I agree...my kids are spoiled, but I have to admit that they are very responsible and hard working. We all take things for granted at times, but I have to say that I have been so very blessed to have kids who exhibit such drive and appreciation. It makes me not mind giving them a little kickstart in life -- as long as they can continue to keep it all in perspective.

Thanks for watching!

Your car is awesome! Love the black-out look! We don't make it that way as often as we'd like, but if we come down for a car show, we'll look for you. Likewise, if you are in the Omaha area at a show, look for us...we attend as often as we can.

We are using the term "supercar" very loosely for sure. It was nice of my son to play along with the concept: "Every car is SUPER to its car-enthusiast owner"

We have documentation and receipts for almost every upgrade the previous owner made to the car, but I looked through the whole stack and couldn't see a receipt for the carbon fiber ground effects. I'm not sure where he got them or what brand they are. I'll look a little further out of curiosity now, but sorry I didn't have an answer for you.
