Default New ‘19 Z06
Hello All,

My wife and I purchased a ‘19 Z06, probably the last in this area. It is really my wife’s car as her retirement gift after retiring from the Navy following 24 years of service.

Also, looking for a good recommendation on a print Vette Magazine?

Thanks all.

Congrats to your wife on both her retirement and the Z06. And thank her for her service.

As for a magazine, I subscribe to Corvette Magazine (have done so since it was launched years ago) and it is by far the best Vette related magazine out there IMO.
