Default Greetings

Hello readers! Great to be here finally! I've wanted a Corvette for over 20 years and now that I have one, I thought it would be a good idea to get some knowledge and support, so here I am!!
I just traded my 2005 Pontiac GTO on my new to me 2005 C6 with only 13,xxx. on the Odometer. I've spent a couple of hours pouring over posts and threads... nice to see some good people with some good knowledge. I am looking forward to exploring this site! I have been on forums for over 14 years, so you can bet I will do a lot of searching before I ask any questions.
Thanks for reading, have a great day!
Todd

Took a few quick photos of my new to me ride.


After looking at the pictures I just took, this is the only one decent enough to post. More to come in the near future tough. Thanks for looking!

So, I just went out and finally did it. We bought the new to me 2007 Atomic Orange convertible end of last month; still can't believe it. Glad to be here finally.
