Hello!! New Vette Owner!!

I'm a Corvette owner!! A lifelong dream has come true for me, as I purchased a 2004 C5 coupe. Arctic White, 3.15 rear, and Magnesium Rims...she only had 5,900 miles on her when I picked her up. She is a beauty. I flew to Corvettes of Houston (nice folks) and drove her back to New Orleans (suburb). I've always wanted a Corvette since I was a graduating Senior in high school and drove a 1985 corvette that still had paper license plate on it. 23 years later I'm living the dream.

One thing I've noticed in the short time I've been a Corvette owner....all Corvette drivers wave to on another while on the road, a friendly acknowledgment that you are in one of the finest sports cars to ever grace the roadway. How true!

Living the dream!!!!!

Thanks for all the wonderful hospitality! In the short time I've been in the Corvette community I find that all owners are class acts! It's great to be a part of it!
