Beautiful car, you won't regret it. Mine is a year old Oct 11 and I am still excited to drive it.

In fact, only regret I have about 31 years of Corvettes is I didn't involve my wife with them until the C5. We have had several great Corvette trips with hopefully more to come.

Have fun and congratulations! You will LOVE this car.

Congrats! It's my 1st one also! Almost a year as a DD! You won't regret your choice! Arctic White is the fastest color too!
