Default Hello from Las Vegas!
Hello All,

I will be picking up my very first Corvette on Wednesday. Getting a '05 Convertible w/Z51 package, 6-speed, heads-up, nav, etc. She's Vivid Red with Ash Interior. Perfect Condition with about 17,000 miles. I can't wait!

First thing will be tinted windows (I am in Vegas after all!). But after that, I don't know. Guess I will have to search the Forum to see what I should do first.

Anyway....will keep you updated.
