Corvette noob
Greetings fellow Corvette enthusiasts. I just swapped my 17 ZL1 for a 19 Z06. This is the first Corvette I have ever owned. Took delivery with 2 miles on the odometer and now sitting at 94 after all the fun I had driving it home from the dealership earlier this evening 
What a car, what a car! Everything I thought it would be and then some. The 500lb weight difference is very noticeable and well appreciated. Feels like a fighter jet compared to the more muscular tank-like Camaro. Can't wait to get it fully broken in and see what it can really do!

Welcome to the forum. I would suggest that you post up the pics and the details about your car in the C7 Z06 Discussion section. Beautiful car BTW.
