New to Corvettes
Greetings from Knoxville, Tennessee!
I've just purchased my first Corvette, a 1993 LT1, in blue (not sure of the official name of the color), and beige interior, with the optional sports seats.
I'm new to Corvettes, but have been a car hobbyist all of my life. My username refers to a 1964 Galaxie500XL I kept for 18 years, and still miss, 20 years after I sold it.
My new to me Corvette shares my driveway with my 1988 5.7 TPI IROC-Z.
Looking forward to getting to know you all, and more about my new car!

The interior is referred to as Light Beige. Doesn't say how many had that interior.
