Default Hello from Springfield, PA

Hello everyone. My name is Steve and I'm a new Corvette owner. Got my 2000 c5 Corvette (Pewter) 6spd with 57k miles. Mint condition!
looking forward to mod it more, currently have an AFE intake, Skip shift elimintor, and opened up the fog light cover for fresh air to the intake. Also lowered the stock bolts.

Anyone located in Springfield, pa area? Or close I am a advid Cars & Coffee attender. In Malvern, pa at the Wegmans parking lot. Looking forward to meet more Corvette guys.

Pewter is such a classy color on the C5 - I loved mine when I had it. Welcome to the forum and best of luck with the car. See you in the C5 sections.
