Default Am I ?

First Corvette. First impressions. And as such, For the first time in a very long time, I see American engineering at its best. This car is so over the top. Have been a toyota fanatic for twenty years. As in 545k miles on three.

Went to local Chevrolet dealer yesterday to have a Z51 wing installed. Spoke to the service manager, he said it's been 32 years, and this is a first for him as well. The service team was all over her too.

I'm not dissing anyone here. And I'm sure I'll get pissed at her someday. Just a real Wow. That's my story.
