Hi Guys, My name is Steve, I am from Northern VA and looking to get my first Corvette. I am looking for a 2007-08 Z06, no mods and not sure on the color yet. I am looking forward to chatting with you and learning as much as I can about these cars.

I test drove one from a local dealer a few weeks ago and was quite impressed and I am looking forward in seeing what this car can really do. I have owned several exotics in the past and can't wait to see how this car compares with them.
