Hello to all, one week ago friday I purchased my first Corvette. I flew down to Tennessee and drove in back to Chicago. The previous owner kept it in show room perfect condition, under cover and always garage kept . Its a 2006 ,Z51, 6 speed with more power than any car I have ever driven. After market he installed a Corsa Exhaust system along with a Veraram air intake. It sounds so very sweet. His parting words to me were," Have fun and don't let it get away from you ". I knew exactly what he was telling me. I look forward to seeing your posts, Good luck to all.
