1st Vette!
I just picked up my first Corvette last month, a 2012 Arctic White GS 3LT A6. Traded in my 2012 2SS for it, didn't really need a new car but the good old boy network kicked in. The dealer needed to get about 8 vettes off the lot so they could get more allotments for C7s and my buddy who is the sales manager made me an offer I couldn't pass up.
I did the whole cam/old school muscle car thing with the SS, vids in the link above, but want to supercharge the vette.
Not the best pictures, just the ones I took when I first brought her home.

Thanks! I needed a color change, last 3 vehicles were black on black and in the Florida summers that wasn't really working out too well. I do have to agree that Sunset Orange is a better color.
