Thank you all!

It was an absolute requirment to purchase a 6MT otherwise it defeats the purpose for me.

Its a 1 LT so no special options but I got everything I wanted 6MT, Black, Strong mechanically, Aux Input.

I do need to restore or replace the headlights and get some stuff off the paint.

Any help or input would be greatly apperciated

Welcome to the forum!

Congrats. on your sharp C6 coupe.

Be sure to check out the "Car Care" area of the forum for information on answering your questions.

My thoughts would be to clean the exterior surface, then use an iron type remover and clay bar before polishing to correct.

Finish with the product of your choice, whether it be traditional wax, synthetic sealant, or Ceramic Coating.

A lot of good information in the link below!

Congratulations on buying your first Corvette. Drive it and love it! The car will provide you with lots of great memories. Don't forget to wave at your fellow Corvette owners as you drive your Corvette. It's proper Corvette etiquette.
