Future C5 Z06 owner
Hello all,
I'm new to the forum and planning on purchasing a 03'-04' Z06 within the next 6 months. I've had many different vehicles ranging from diesel land rover, 347 stroked fox body mustang to purpose built jeep TJ wranglers. This will be my second run with a Corvette as I had a 77' for about 6 months. I'm hoping to setup a Z for local SCCA events and some spirited drives through the adirondacks in upstate, New York.
I've been reading up on these cars for the past 6 months and wanted to thank everyone who has contributed to the forum as I have received quite the education here.
I look forward to spending more time here when I find my next car.
Cheers,
Justin

Thank you all for the warm welcome.
I am now officially on the hunt. Residing in upstate, NY has left very little to be found in the "garaged" months, so I decided to post in the WTB section of this forum.
I checked out a nice 04' Z in Florida when I was down visiting my parents last week, but I couldn't get over the white rally stripes that were done professionally (cleared over)
Thanks again,
Justin
