Congratulations and welcome to the wacky world of Corvette ownership! I have a 2016 Torch Red 3LT Convertible and absolutely love it. You have more top down days than I do here in New England, but those days are special. Enjoy the ride.

Par-Vet, gorgeous car! I got my first C7 in January of this year (owned a C4 and C6 as well) and have one piece of advice besides driving the snot out of that car. Check out the "stickies" at the top of the page. There's a wealth of info there and it'll help you understand your new baby a lot better.

Also don't ever be shy in asking any questions you're going to have. There's a ton of great people here that are always willing to help a new Vette owner.

And pics. We like pics. Interior pics, scenic pics, and whatever mods you do to the car. Now take the Mrs. out for a nice long cruise and don't forget the ice cream.
