First time vette owner
Hi All,
I just bought my first Vette three weeks ago and I still can't quit smiling. I can hardly wait until the weather breaks. I bought a Yellow 2003 6-speed with only 4,900 miles on it. Believe it or not I can still smell the leather.
Of course, since it is in show room condition I want to keep it that way. Does anybody have any opinions on door sill protectors and the static cling plastic overlays for the front end and rocker panels? I can use all the help that you all can suggest.
thanks...it's great to be able to say I finally have my dream car.
Dave
