hi everyone

My name is Gulu. I'm from Roseville, CA(northern cali by sacramento) I miss having an lsmotor car. I'm selling my 05 ACURA RL at the moment and once its gone I'll be in the market again. I'm suprised i haven't joined this forum yet, so its about that time. I've had an 2004 CTS-V, and a LS1 camaro, in the past and now its time for a CORVETTE! Both of my neighbors on either side of me have a C5 Zo6 haha. Anyway nice to meet you all in advance.



UPDATE. SO I FOUND SOME THAT WANTED TO TRADE FOR MY 2005 ACURA RL. :-) SO HAPPY. I JUST GOT MY FIRST VETTE!

Here's the only pic i have right. Sorry, but thought i would share.

Its a 2001 Coupe, 6speed with 134k miles. We traded straight across. The vette blue books for more than my car and also gets better gas mileage, i dont have to mention its more reliable and less maintenance than my acura. =) but neways glad to be part of the family! The clutch grabs good, the transmission shifts smooth, and it came with a B&B 3" exhaust, and i'll be getting a Vararam Intake later today for the first mod. It needs a good cleaning on the inside and the right rear quarter panel replaced. I'll also be looking for the peripheral mp3 player conversion to hook up to the Bose stereo. Any other suggestions or referrals will be much appreciated! Down the road will be longtubes/heads/cam. But for awhile its going to be my Daily driver.
