Hello
Hello, I am a new member who has been in love with Corvettes since I was a little boy but have never owned one. Well that is about to change! I have come to a place in my life where I can spend the extra money for a corvette and not feel bad about it. Now my real question is what corvette do I buy. I am trying to decide between a 2015 or 2016 Z06 or a 2011 or 2012 ZR1. I appreciate any input that you can provide me on why one might be better than the other.
