New guy from Syracuse

Hi,

Thanks for having me. Soon to be retired here and decided now that the last of the kids have come of age that it's time for me to get back into owning a car to be proud of. I found this wonderful place by looking on line for a corvette. Then I spent the next 5 hours reading. I think I also found the car I want right here! so far it's a great day.

Looking forward to spending many leisurely evenings here.

Thanks,
Martie.

Thanks for all the welcomes.

Well.....I did it. Bought a 05 z51. 23000 miles. $27000. It's in mint condition.

I learned a lot reading here. I think I did a good job in my hunt and the price seemed ok. I'll post some picks next week when my kid returns my camera. Hahaha

Heres a photo from my phone. In my garage. I've been so busy I haven't even had time to hardly drive it. Still have to clean out this space to give it a home yet.
