Default Hello, Everyone! First Time Corvette Owner

Hello, everyone! So, I finally decided to do something I have always wanted to do and I bought a Corvette! She's a little on the older side, 2007. She only has 21k miles on her and she is in beautiful shape! She has the 3LT package and so far, I love it! Oh, and my 12 year old daughter might love her more than I do. She also named the car for me. Say hello to Ruby!

Thanks, everyone! I will be spending a lot of time on these forums! I will have a lot of questions too! I'm not sure what, if anything I want to do to Ruby. I am thinking maybe some performance mods, but I don't want it to rattle the windows on the houses when I drive past them. A little growl is always nice though. I'm contemplating a radio so I can use android auto, phone etc. I have the Bose system, so I will have to do some research on how a different radio will affect everything in the car.

I am open to any and all suggestions, recommendations, ideas, thoughts, etc.!!!!
