Default My First Vette
Hey guys!

I just bought my first Vette. Its a 2005 Maroon Coup. So far I love everything about it. It's in great shape, the only down side is it has about 83k miles. I am thinking about putting a nav system or at least a touch screen so any suggestions would be awesome. Also it currently has Michelin Pilot Sport tires on it and I was wondering what a good all season tire would be. I look forward to talking to everyone.
Thanks,
Chris
