New 2005 C6 owner from British Columbia, Canada
My name is Ian from Vancouver, BC, Canada, and looking forward to getting into the community. I just purchased my first Corvette last week, a 2005 C6 Z51 6 speed in magnetic red with 60,000 KMs, or 37,000 miles. It's been a great week so far and am looking forward to getting more into the car. The forum has been a great resource thus far, as I've already disabled CAGS, fixed the rear hatch release, updated the NAV firmware, and am now looking into cat back exhaust options.
