Default new vette owner.

Sold my twin turbo GTO and picked up my first vette. 2008 JSB c6. Its been a dream of mine to have a c6 for a long time. So far my interactions in this forum have been great and everyone is extremely helpful.

The big reason I switched was the next step for the gto would have been 10k worth of suspension/tranny work to make it run the times it should. I loved the car but man was it heavy and the m6 launched terribly. If im going to spend the cash im doing it on my true dream car.
