Default Bonjour 🇫🇷

Hello to all members.

I am Richy, French, living 80 km from Paris. I have had 2 Vettes, a C5 2001 and last, bought in october 2010, the first C6 GS arriving in France. I bought it in USA and driving during 3 000 km to go to Bayonne NJ for box and ship to carry to Le Havre France. It was my first contact with your country. I sold this JSB 4LT GS in july 2016.

Now I want the better of GM, the beast , Dark Vador C7 ZO6 Z07, in Admiral Blue, of course, as the sea.

I read you since many years, for me, this forum is the reference forum, the Bible of corvettes with pure enthusiasts.

I was in the Executive Committe of the forum of our Club until 2013, www.corvettepassion.com and always in the Executive of the Corvette Club France but without function now, I am just now ''Honoris Causa', before I was the head of Communication and Sponsoring www.corvetteclubfrance.com

Excuse me for my baby's english. Thank you if you read me and for your welcome Captains of Corvettes, merci beaucoup. :
