New Guy from Ohio
Hello all!
Ever since I saw a C6 for the first time I was determined to get my hands on one. Too bad at the time i was still in high school and did not make enough to even attempt it. A few years have passed and I have been blessed with an amazing job which allowed me to begin my search.
I found the one I wanted at a CarMax of all places. After some research I determined it was actually a really good deal. It's a 2008 Black C6 1LT with 20K miles. Its almost as basic as it gets for a C6 but I don't care. I bought it to drive. Too bad CarMax low-balled on the trade in, but that was to be expected. Anyways, its an amazing car and from what I've seen, this is an awesome forum.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on getting the car you wanted.
I got my first Vette, a 2009 C6 1LT 6MN, last November.
Like Wyndridge3 said there is nothing basic about any C6. They start at amazing and, I think, a great value too.
Have fun.
