Hello all, I am from Ft. Oglethorpe GA and I am looking for my first Vette. I retired about 5 yrs ago and am looking for a C5 or C6. I just started looking at this forum yesterday and trying to get some information on what to look for while seeking the best car I can find. So far I have learned several things from this forum which I believe will help me in my search. So bear with me as I begin this search, I may have several questions and will need your help. Thanks
Enjoy while you can.

Welcome and good luck finding the right Corvette.
If you haven’t already done so, take a look at the stickies in the C5 General and C5 Tech Sections for some good information on the C5 models.
