Default First Time Corvette Owner!

Hey everyone just bought my first corvette! It's a 2006 Arctic White Base Coupe that I bought from an original owner that was a collector. It's got about 26,000 miles on it and i'm absolutely in love with the car. I'm glad to be able to join the community and hope to find some awesome meets in my area of Princeton NJ!

Thanks so much everyone! Yeah i've definitely found a ton of useful information on here about what i want to do next with it. My car before this was a 1995 eclipse gsx that i built myself that made around 400awhp so now its time to get used to working on a big v8!

Thanks so much everyone. Sad that it's about to be stored away for the winter but I sure can't wait until the spring!

Welcome to the forum.
Really enjoyed the fall foliage.

Curious -- if you enjoy the C6 so much -- why store it for the winter?

In my area, they basically layer the roads with salt even if snow isn't in the forecast and they've already started doing so, so I can't do that to my baby!
