My New Corvette-Photo's
Here are pictures of my new Corvette. It truly is my dream car as I am a huge fan of Red/Red Corvette's. I had not driven a C6 until I bought this one and all I can say is wow, what a ride!! It has the package with HUD, memery seats and many other optional items including XM radio. (nice) I have had so many great cars in the past (I still do, a Reatta convertible, twi Indy pace cars and a Jaguar XJS convertible) but this Corvette finds itself on top of the list. Looking back, all I can say is why did I wait so long??

Congrats. Bad news however. Your insurance company may not be very happy when they realize you got the fastest color!

I was looking into color combos, one site said there were only 4% of 2006 models with red/red color combinations, can that be true?
Thanks for all your well wishes, much appreciated!

Looks great, enjoy your new car !
How do you like the Reatta ? I love oddball 80-90s stuff, and have seen a few come up for sale.

I really love the Reatta, great car! Mine is a 1991 with 17000 miles on it, a real time piece. It won best Buick in the BOP this year so I guess the respect is rising for Buick's 4 year experiment. It is really a fun car to drive with the top down, the 16 inch wheels and touring suspension really give it a solid feel for the road.

I guess with that kind of mileage you have not had many problems. Does it have the digital dash/radio/climate control ?

Congrats on your new car you'll really enjoy driving it now that FINALLY the hot summer heat is breaking, approaching the best months of the year for having the top down...
