Hey Everyone,

My name is Denish, will be picking up my brand new 07 z51 6 spd this Saturday morning from one of the sponsors on here, Boardwalk Chevrolet. Was waiting for hte 08 at first, but seeing the savings on the 07 I was eyeing there was no way could I pass up a deal like that!

Been lurking on the forum and reading up for the last five months or so and I've wanted a Corvette since I was a kid (it was the c4 back then haha...so I suppose I am fairly young but not tooo young). It's taken awhile, lots of saving up and sacrifice but I'm glad and proud that in two days I'll finally have the car I've wanted for so long. Looking forward to being a part of this group and hopefully meeting some of the local crowd in the LA/OC area! Ya'll have a nice community here!

-Denish

Congrats on your new 07 vette!! Glad you were able to finally get one. It took me longer than you to get one but they are great. Now you will be driving around with a big grin on your face. Welcome to the Forum, Denish. They're great and you will also meet a lot of new friends. :cheers

8:00: Wash car (all the bugs driving back from norcal to LA should make this a challenge)
9:00: Clay Bar
10:00: Cleaner Wax
12:00: Lunch Break
1:00: Polish
3:00: Sealer Wax
6:00: Dinner

Thanks! Car's nose is covered in bugs from the drive back but it'll be better tommorow after getting cleaned up. Waved and got a wave back by a black zo6 also going south on the 101...awesome ride whoever you were buddy!
