HI all,
My name is Patrick and just signed up as a new member. I have used this site for a lot of information regarding trying to buy my first corvette ( c6 2008 ish black coupe ) . I have been on the hunt for over 3 months and still have not found the exact car for me. I have learned so much from this site I would like to thank you all for all your input on many topic. Some topics are long that's for sure, z51, f55 , and the 2007 z06 engine problems. I almost bought a 2007 Z06 11/06 still available but rocker scared, still have not made a decision on auto or manual either. My thoughts today are to buy the zo6 , the car has everything , the rockers do not fall in the dates of 01/07- 06/07, manuals are not as bad as they use to be,
When I first was looking my wish list was a 6.2l black coupe, z51,npp, auto so wife could enjoy as well and I could always have a few "pops" when out.
I just want to say hi and introduce myself I am from Ontario Canada and thank you all for all the information provided here, and welcome any feed back,
