New Corvette owner!
In a previous life I've owned an MGA, belonged to the SCCA and a Camaro but always had a desire for a Corvette. Quite often we saw a nice white one always parked in the same spot at a business. I mentioned more than once that it was sort of my dream car. One day the wife said "then why don't you just buy one". That's all it took....I started looking for that C-5, white, low mileage and after a few months I found it. 22,570 miles and the preferred package. We drove to the town where it was, checked it out and bought it. I LOVE MY WIFE!
