Default New From North Texas
Last Sat. I purchased a 2006 coupe, 6A. All stock. I am retired. Will be 65 yrs. old in 2 weeks. I think as the last car I will own, it might as well be a Corvette.

I had 3 different Corvettes before the '06. First, a 1968, conv., 427, 400hp, 4 speed. Second, a 1970, conv., 350, 300hp, 4 speed. Third, 1984 coupe.
