I'm new to the Corvette world. I'm 22 and have only had imports up until now. I have a 2002 black automatic
coupe that I am daily driving for now (I'll pick up a clunker next month) and I can finally say I love going to work now, it's the staying part that kills me though. Car shopping for this thing was a nightmare, but I'm pleased with the outcome. Currently it just has a CAI and Billy Boat axle back exhaust from the previous owner, but I plan on doing much more.

Thanks! I'm really excited, the first thing I will most likely do is beef up the transmission. It will probably won't be until the winter.
