Finally got a vette
New Corvette owner checking in from Tennessee. I have twin boys, so for the last two decades it was tough to justify a two seater. Now with both of them Seniors in college it was time.
I'm the proud new owner of 2012 Centennial base coupe, with 9300 miles on it (CPO).
My last two daily's were both Caddys. A 2013 ATS 2.0 turbo, with KPE catless downpipe/tune and a 2010 CTSV Sedan with intake, pulley and tune.
Im a huge Buick Grand National fan, currently owning two of them. I'm also a previous mustang owner. I daily drove a caged, supercharged 89 mustang for 6 years and built a 2001 Cobra with a F1 procharger, aem meth kit and a Wilson plate nitrous system.
I'm not a "brand guy" I love pretty much any high performance car. I've owned an STI, a Acura Integra type r, 67 Chevelle, 57 Chevy police car, a 69 bug and the list goes on.
I made a list years ago of all the cars I will own before I die. Three more to go. A Viper, a GTR and the final car, a 1969 Camaro Z/28.
I've been in the Army, been a police officer, a Mangager at a Fortune 500 company, a Strongman competitor and a professional power lifter.
Every project starts small and turns into body off frame lmao.
