First time Vette owner
I am a car guy originally from Detroit. At 60 I finally have my first Corvette. 2005 Base model 6 speed coupe. Wow, what a ride. I had no idea of the high caliber of this car!!
I have a friend that has had Corvette's since 1973. He has a 99 that he bought new that runs a streetable 10.90 before the spray.
But anyway I no longer have to ride in someone else's Vette. I just have to hop into my new driver and away I go. I can see that rear tires are going to be a bitch though, lol.
