Howdy from Montana

Howdy everyone ! You know I've always wanted to own a Corvette but other things kept getting in the way. So the other day I figured I not getting any younger, so I figured I start looking around and try to find me a good used one. The one I found was in Denver, It's a 2005 yellow convertible. The thing that really sold me on it is that it only had 5,600 original miles on it and is in perfect condition, so I decided to buy it. I flew down yesterday, bought it and drove it back to Montana, so now I have that Corvette I always wanted, which of course lead me to this forum. I hope to make friends in this forum, learn more about my new old car and contribute when I'm knowledgeable enough to do so.

Welcome to the Forum, and congratulations on your C6!
So the previous owner appeared to average about 35 miles per month. Looks like your drive from Denver to Billings was more mileage than the PO put on it in 15 months. Great job; keep it up!
