been on here lurking for quite a while now. finally had the chance at a good deal and couldnt pass it up. i cant post pictures yet since i am at work. but for sure i will once i get home. first time owning a vette, and i must say....she is like no other. I've previously had a 99 mustang cobra, 2001 Saleen S281, 2003 F150 harley davidson. its only been day two with my new baby and im wondering why it took me so long to get one lol. with that being said, i hope to learn from you guys and make this experience better. thanks in advance.
also if any people from the RGV on here, let me know. would be pretty cool to hang out with people with similar passions and hobbies.
