Hi-

I joined this site to help research a Corvette purchase...right now I'm looking to step into either a C5Z or a C6?!?!?!?!?!...I haven't made up my mind between the two so it's on to the "SEARCH Button"...

I guess I'm really not new but back in the hunt for a Corvette....

Long as your search is limited to Vettes, that's okay.
