New vette guy
Like the title says, new vette, new life! I am finally a Corvette owner! I couldn't wait on the 2020 and it didn't have the manual, a must have for me. So went looking for a deal on a 2019 and scored a 3LT GS artic white here in San Antonio. It was between a Black Z06 auto or the white GS manual, as soon as I saw the GS, I decided it was time to put the big boy pants on and finally get me a Corvette.
I have owned Camaro's since 2008 but I just wasn't happy anymore, the new 2018 SS convertible was a fun but I was dead inside and wanted a Corvette. I recently heard that the average Corvette owner's age is 64, so I am hoping I dropped it a little bit since I am 39. I have had the car about a week and can't get enough time in the car, it's such a damn blast! I also enjoy my 2 kids fighting over the copilot seat, good times!
So far my favorite part of the experience is when other drivers attempt to block me from passing them or cut me off and I pass them with such ease, love it!
