Now the honeymoon begins.
After a month of waiting from purchase until delivery in Washington State I finally took delivery of my first Corvette.
I decided for Z51 with mag ride and I am glad I did, oooh what fun it is!

The Vette looks great, but I was instantly attracted to the classic Porsche next door.

That is one awesome vehicle and worth a few bucks!

What's under the other car covers?

Here are a couple more views....


Thomas Sunday Ltd. shipped it over. The driver was a good guy, very friendly and he knows cars. The office service from Thomas Sunday deserves an F. They did not update me a single time on anything during the entire month it took to receive the car. I was supposed to get 2-3 days notice prior to delivery, the driver called me Sunday night at 8 pm for Monday morning delivery. Otherwise the car was in good condition when it arrived and their truck was well maintained.

More of the same, the silver is a 63 B Coupe, then there is a 58 A coupe rally car, a 56 Speedster, 59 convertible D replica and a 60 B custom order and a Nash Metropolitan convertible. The Vette is my first American fun car, always wanted to be able to go really fast.

Thanks, The first thing I noticed is that the car is too easy to drive. I suppose I have to take it to the track to really feel it.

Thank you, I knew there was a better way. I will try that feature in the future. I tried to respond to each reply directly, but the 'reply' as well as the 'quick reply' always seem to place the response at the end of the thread. Is there a way to directly respond beneath the original reply of a member?
