Hi all,
I've been poking around the forum for a while as I will be buying a Corvette within the next year. I've never owned one, but have been lucky to know some folks who've had them over the years. My claim to fame is that I was fortunate to know one of the original Black Widow Doug Rippie Corvette owners and got to ride in that amazing machine back in the early 90's. I'm pretty sure that's where my passion came from...
Anyway, I look forward to learning more and becoming smart in my quest to own one of my dream cars very soon.
