Greetings all,
I got my vette about a month ago and have been trolling here since. I got around to taking some pictures so I thought I'd introduce myself.
Car: 05 Coupe, Silver, z51, 6sp
Mods: Lingenfelter CAI
Me: Young (24), pharmacy sales rep in southern CA. Done well for myself since college and this was my treat. Haven't been a part of a forum since I owned my Triumph Daytona 675 in college, and excited to have a toy again.
Fast Vehicle Resume:
2000 Ford Mustang GT, ($10000 under the hood, crashed off a canyon going too fast)
2006 Triumph Daytona 675 (Crazy fun, sold before I killed myself)
Why I bought the vette:
Went to buy a new camaro. The dealer had this sitting in front for about 5k less than I was going to spend on an SS. Drove both and there was no comparison. Walked out of there with their best warranty and a huge smile. Mileage be damned, this car is a rocketship. (50k miles) In the end I was also considering a used GT500, but the 6.0 is so excellent.
Likes:
Tire destroying power with very intelligent and usable traction control
Sexiest car south of an F430
Fits my 6'5 frame fine
REMOVEABLE TOP!!!
Suprising room for golf clubs
Dislikes:
Insurance
I love the way you've all made your vettes your own, but any mod money is going into my Z06 fund. Anyway, thanks for a great forum, I look forward to getting to know y'all.
