As a gm retiree I spent years dealing with parts related issues on corvettes as well as other gm cars. I have always dreamed of oweing a corvette.Well for my 65th birthday my wonderful wife of 44 years purchased me (us) a 2007 lemans blue coupe. It's only a week old and I already have five coats of zaino on it. I can't stop just sitting in the garage and admiring it. The car drives like a dream,will be going to florida next week with the queen city corvette club.Can't wait to get on I95 south.

Congrats on your new Vette. Welcome to the Forum, they're great for getting up to speed on all Vette things. If you are in the Tampa area, our club (Tampa Bay) meets on the 2nd Wednesday of the month at Ferman Chevrolet. Stop in and see us.

Hi Guys,
Will be moving over here from c-4 section as I'm picking up a 05 tomorrow. I've had the c-4 for 3 years and I'm going to miss her. I'm getting a convertible with a 6 speed. She's Daytona Sunset Orange with the tan interior and top. has 3100 miles.

When your wife gets tired of you and the vette, I don't care what she does with you. Just have her send the vette down here.

Welcome to forum. Tons of fun, free advice, good friendship, and all that stuff.
