First time Corvette owner!
Hey everyone, I have been on here for a couple months now I just haven't introduced myself.
I just recently (end of October) bought my first Corvette. 2007 black C6 (z51) 6 speed manual. 25k miles.
I bought the car from a dealer my friend works at.
Coming from 3 fbodys (93 z28, 99 z28, 02 z28) this car is quite the change. I'm 27 years old and this car is harder to get in and out of than the fbodys, and it isn't even lowered yet!!!
Anyways, being from Michigan I have been pretty blessed being able to drive it so late into the season. She will probably be going away this weekend as it's suppose to be high 60s on Friday and snow on Saturday night.
Wheels, exhaust, fast 102, tune, zr1 side skirts and she should be good to go!
If there are any tips and tricks to these cars or common issues, I'm all ears. Still learning a bunch about it.
