New, first-time Corvette owner

This has been coming a long time. Just got a 2014 Stingray! My wife and I will celebrate our 25th Anniversary in our new silver corvette! We've been saving for a very long time for this. I'm really happy with the one I found. Only 10,000 miles on it with 1 owner. Was traded in on a new one. Already has paint protection film on the front. Some extras in the trunk. Tinted windows. Pristine interior. Still smells new. Couldn't be happier.

Welcome to the Vette club. I'm also a new first time Corvette owner and it feels great. I hope we both get many years of pleasure from our cars.

Welcome to the world of Corvettes and this forum.
Congrats, as many long for a Corvette their entire life without it ever happening.
Please post up photos when it's convenient.

Fantastic - congratulations. Vettes really are an addiction, and the more you drive them, the more you appreciate what incredible cars they are.
