Default First Time Corvette Owner

I'm doing this backwards because I've already been posting quite a bit. Been a member since 2014 but only recently bought my first Vette and went big with a C6 ZR1. Absolutely love the car and can't believe I waited this long to get one. Coming from a ZL1 Camaro, which I loved, but doesn't really compare to the ZR1. I've really enjoyed being on the forums and look forward to being a member for a long time. Good people and great cars. I love all Corvettes, C1 through C7 and will never say a bad word about anyones car. I've seen a few people battling back and forth about their cars, but only a couple of times so it seems rare, which I'm happy about. Glad to be a part of this great community.
