Default I need a Vette

Hello to all. My first post. I will be buying a vette soon. I may just wait until the 2010s come out. I will be searching on here to find out what the difference is going to be. I hope to gain a lot of knowledge here. I currently own a 2002 Formula with heads, cam and full exhaust and 13k miles on it. I spent alot of time on LS2.com and see myself spending alot of time on here now.

Welcome. You might want to just buy one now because the latest news from GM is that there probably won't be any changes till 2014

You mean we can wait five years, pick up a used ZR-1 cheap, and look like we bought it new?

Cool.

I would suggest to buy what you can afford now. It will provide enjoyment, experience and contact with lots of Corvette folks. You also will not get a severe hit on depreciation when you trade up to that new one. That's what I did with my '81. It was affordible and eventhough below show quality it provided me with a lot of fun while saving up for the '92 that I bought new.
