Default Finally a Vette!

My first Corvette, a black 6-speed 2007 with only 16,354 miles, excellent condition. Just bought it late yesterday, 6/20/11, afternoon. Loving it! I took my wife's advice: stop dreaming and start driving!

Thanks, Vetjazz. I like the 2007 6-speed manual, but now I'm liking the 2012 GS more with the 6-speed paddle shift auto.
