New First Time Owner
My dad told me growing up, "That every man should own a Corvette at some point in his life. It's the only true American sports car!" Well I'm happy to say at just under 40 years old, I've finally got one. It's a C5 torch red coupe, it's used but it's mine. It's also my first time belonging to a forum. It's great to be part of a wonderful fraternity of quality people.
