Hello from Orlando, FL
Thought I'd go ahead and register since I've been lurking as a guest for a couple weeks getting info before I purchased my Vette. Ive had 2 in past a 1981 back in 1994 and a 1986 in 1996. Just purchased a really nice low mile (60k) Torch Red 1998 C5 automatic. It is drop dead gorgeous and have had plans of 19" wheels, new exhaust etc but as it sits right now bone stock I gotta admit I kinda like the fact that I have an unmolested 16 year old garage kept car that looks like it just rolled off the line inside and out. Anywho I've never been able to keep things stock for very long and usually get carried away so we'll see I guess.
