Hello from Texas (or Italy)
Hello, my name is Alberto, born and raised in Italy (Pavia). I grew up admiring American muscle cars, and when my Company asked me to move to Houston three years ago...well I finally realized my dream. I bought a 2013 Camaro SS Hotwheels Edition.
In April 2017 I went to Nashville for an Oil&Gas Technical seminar and by chance I discovered the Corvette plant in Bowling Green was just few miles down the road....I went for the plant and Museum tour.....love at first sight.
I sold the Camaro and now I own a 2016 Stingray 2LT Arctic White.
I live in Houston and I am willing to learn and participate on the forum as much as possible, and maybe get in touch with other local owners in my area!

Alberto - welcome to the forum and congrats on getting a C7. I'd suggest spending some time in the various C7 sections of the forum where you can learn a lot about your generation of Corvette.
