C6 Newbie

Have just acquired my first Vette, an '06 C6 Coupe, Z51, 3LT, M6, LMB/Cash., unmolested 5k mi. Couldn't be happier with this car. The
C6 is truly world-class. Stunning styling, all-day comfortable, world-class fit and finish, bulletproof reliability, an amazing price performer...but you guys already know this. Traded a Ferrari 550 Maranello and got a big check as a bonus.

Thanks go out to this forum and all contributors. You've already been a tremendous resource.

Thanks for your note. Ferraris should come equipt with a credit card swipe on the dash. Won't miss that ritual a bit.

@enzo550m - I live in Willow Springs not far from you. Do you go to any shows at all, better yet do you know of any besides the ones on Fridays in downers grove? I'm looking to get a crew together for some cars and coffee and cruising.
