C7 of Year Finalist (stock) 2019
returning after 10 years.
My last Vette was a stunning Atomic Orange 3lt C6, I've owned 6 Corvettes over the years along with dozens of other muscle cars and high performance vehicles - seems I cant get enough of that "pinned to the seat" goodness. My very first car when I was 16 years old was a 69 Chevelle SS 396 and I've been a car nut from the beginning.
I sold my C6 in late 07 and at that point we started a succession of BMW's, first a 325ci convert, then a 335is coupe, an M3 coupe, and now an X5 twin turbo V8 putting out about 525 HP. All fun cars but very subtle in their presentation.
It's time for another Corvette and at this time I'm shopping. I'm hoping to get up to date on the latest but right now I'm leaning towards a lt 2 or 3 GS. I've not been able to find what I want in any inventory so I may order my car.
I'm open to any and all input and advice and I look forward to becoming a part of the Corvette community.
