Well chosen and acquired. Nothing matches the feeling you have on that first drive home. It's when you, and you alone, bond with your Corvette. Thanks for the enjoyable post )

Very true. In 2002 I ordered a C5. When it came in I took a cab to the dealer and drove it home. It was an amazing feeling seeing the curve of the fenders, the immediate throttle response. I smiled all the way home. BTW, leaving the dealership was the first time I had ever driven a Corvette. LOL

Last Friday when I picked up my C7 I had the same feeling only magnified. I still can't get over just how good the C7 is. And I still had that smile on my face.
