New Member & New C7 Ordered
Hello all, new guy here from Central Ohio. I turn 60 years old this year and thought it was about time I bought my first Corvette. Went out yesterday thinking I'd buy a left over 2017 but couldn't find one that fit what I wanted so ordered a 2019 Grand Sport Coupe. Should be ready by April and that's okay with me because the weather sucks here. The wife is already planning a trip to the mountains via the Blue Ridge Parkway, something we've done many times on a motorcycle.
Looking forward to making new friends and gaining knowledge from veteran Corvette owners here.
Here's a rendering of what she'll look like.

Welcome to the forum, Jim, and congratulations on your upcoming GS!
Looks sharp; hopefully the days won't seem too long while you wait.

Welcome. I am sure you are anxious for the delivery.
There is a lot of useful information here so learn to search the various threads. There is one for C7s, for car care, etc.
Remember to save the wave!
