Hey, new member here. I signed up a few weeks ago, but had p/w issues and opened new account. I recently picked up a 2015 C7 on B@T, first time Vette owner. I'm interested in events in the Scottsdale AZ area and any tips someone can give as far as ownership and/or maintenance issues. thanks for the add. Harry

Sign up for the National COrvette Museum Newsletter;https://www.corvette museum.org/museum-in-motion/ Check out the MiM events for the last two weeks in September. There is a week long tour of 5 National Parks north of you; hosted by the NCM and lead by myself. This will be the 9th trip, all Corvettes and a boatload of fun. You'll have to get on the waiting list; if you do it now, you stand a fair chance of getting in. We run two trips each year and both sell out......welcome to the fam, enjoy the ride.....BTW, I have a '15 also that I bought new, it now has over 100K from mostly Corvette trips.
