Default Newbie from Central TX

I've been bitten by the vette bug and I'm looking to add to my current stable of horses. Haven't actually bought one yet as I can't decide if I should buy a used 2006, a new or used 2007 or get a new 2008 of the C6's. I also haven't decided what options I really feel I must have as the basic seems to have what I need. The suspension package seems nice though.

Thought I'd come on here and learn some more and hopefully figure out what I really want as my husband says I'm a vehicle down on him and I need to even out the number.

My current harem:
1953 f-100 with a 429 waiting for me to install it if I ever have time
2001 Lightning - with some bolt-ons and high 11s in the 1/4.
2007 Toyota Camry SE - grocery getter and slow

My husbands:
1987 Ford Mustang GT 342 stroker
1999 Lightning (faster than mine if it ever gets up and running)
2006 Scion Xa - the commuter
2007 F350 Dually - Our Tow horse
