Default Finally!!!

Well, I pick her up yesterday afternoon and I must say I'm just speechless. This will be short and I'll check in later once this has all sunk in. I just can't believe I own a corvette, it's overwhelming.

Congratulations Jeff on your new ride!

I plan to do the same in a few months.

In the meantime, if you happen to come to Montreal and see a guy in a Silver SRX waving at you, don't be surprised!

Welcome to the hood. This is the posse known as the "un-club". No rules, no politcking, no BS. Sweet looking ride. Takes a mighty strong man to order a triple black these days. Congrats.

The most inexpensive part is the car....it's what happens after that cost's a fortune. Every time I buy a mod I tell myself it's the last time. Just Rx'd my C6 gonna leave it stock right.....wheels & tires, lowered, chrome door handles, paint matched third brake light thing, color matched licence plate bracket, Venom intake, it goes on & on & on & on....therapy.
