New Guy here in Eastern NC
My name is Jake, I live in Swansboro NC. I recently medically retired from the Marine Corps after 11 years of service as an EOD Tech. (bomb disposal) Long story short I had a bad day in Afghanistan and am no a left leg amputee below the knee. On the plus side this is what finally caused me to ditch my long past of SBF stroker manual fox body's (due to needing an automatic now) and buy myself a 2009 C6A6 Base Coupe. I bought the car for myself as a retirement gift after leaving the Corps. I wanted to find a C6A6 with the LS3 and less then 50k miles for under $27k. Took about a month but I found exactly what I wanted a few states over, made the drive to get her. Paid $24,500 for a 2009 C6A6 LT1 base coupe with 31k miles completely stock down to the paper air filter. It lasted 3 weeks and 1000 miles before I was Calling Texas speed. She now sports the mods listed below. Im really considering a converter after first trip to the track, but we shall see.
