Default Hi New C6 Owner - Happy to Be Here

Hi, my name is David and I live in Carlsbad, CA. I purchased my 2013 Grand Sport in Velocity Yellow Tincoat a week ago tomorrow (June 30). I was lucky to find a well cared for, relatively low mileage (16.5K) Corvette in a color that really got my attention. My Grand Sport is stock with the exception of body color trim panels in the interior. Right now I'm enjoying the drive and getting a feel for the car.

I look forward to learning from the experiences of you all, and enjoying the heck out of the C6.

Thanks, -David

Congrats! My C6 is great, had it only three weeks. Love to drive it! And, perhaps you have been buying neat stuff for Yours, and spending a lot on Gas driving it ... so much that YOU CAN'T AFFORD A CAMERA, Huh?!?
