New Potential Corvette Owner!
Hey there everyone. I'm in the process of evaluating and hopefully buying my first Corvette later this week. I've always thought they were an awesome car, but I never thought I'd be in a spot to pull the trigger. I registered to be able to poke around and maybe ask for some thoughts/advice from the owners here.
The one I'm looking at is a 1991 Corvette Convertible with 65k miles. Exterior and interior seem to be in great shape, drives pretty well (although I'm not super experienced).
Tomorrow I'll be picking it up from the dealer to take it to a local specialist to have it checked out, as well as testing to make sure I can get it into my driveway, which has an awkward slant upon which some vehicles scrape.
That said, I'm pretty much in love with this car.
Update: Bought it!
