Looking to buy
Hello all,
I am in the process of looking to buy a Corvette. Seeing as I don't know anyone personally who owns one. I figured I'd try to find people like you all who could help me out. I was wondering if you could give me any pointers in looking when it comes to used/new/classic. I'm looking at a 05 or newer or something around a 68/69. What are the things I should be looking for specific to a Corvette? Total noobish question I know. But I figured you all could help me out.

Welcome to the Forum!!!!!! Good luck in your search for the right car! 
First a point. Although it isn't required, it would be nice if you filled in your profile so folks will know a little about you, where you are located and ultimately about your car. It helps when answering your questions because often an answer depends on geographic location. Also, it's just friendlier. Thanks for your consideration.
So, to ask your questions about a C3 ('68 - '82) go to the C3 section of the Forum here:
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=119
To ask questions about a C6 ('05 - present) go to the C6 section of the Forum here:
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=74
Have fun, enjoy and good luck.
