SoCal newbie
Hello,
My name is Sarah and I live in Westlake Village, CA. I owned a 1976 L82 Stingray for nearly thirty years. Although the color looked orange it was called Red Flame, It had a black leather interior, automatic, and gymkana suspension. I am smitten once again to buy another so plan to do plenty of reading, especially on the new models. My kids are grown so my time is spent shooting various firearms. I compete in PRS matches with a modified Remington 700 5R Mil Spec in .308. I've played guitar my entire adult life and occastionally will get into a classic rock band for fun. I also ride a 2008 Harley Davidson Rocker. See ya 'round!

Thank you very much. I'm leaning toward the C5 models this time around. I'll have to do plenty of research. Years ago I belonged to the Ann Arbor Corvette Club in Michigan and have fond memories of the car shows I went to and even the little convoy we did driving to Bloomington Gold. That was a blast!
