Waiting for spring when my 2010 Camaro SS will go up for sale and the search for a 2013 C6 Grand Sport or possibly any C6 Z06 will begin. Any tips or hints on Corvette shopping will be welcome.

I'd suggest you spend some time checking out the threads in the various C6 sections of the forum and post up some questions you may have there. That's where you'll get some valuable info on that generation of Corvette.

Hi Paul, I'm in Warwick also.. I go thru Paul Masse in EP. Bought my 04' there and now my 07'. Usually has a decent selection. I believe they currently have 2 GS's. Good Luck with the search. This forum is your best place for anything Vette related.

I have to Paul Masse many times and always check into the "toybox" out back. Good chance I will buy from there but my search will extend far and wide this spring.
