I've always loved corvettes and last weekend I finally purchased the model and color I've always wanted... A 92 black rose metallic C4
(let's be real, we ALL want one from the 60s or older but they're out of my price range haha)
Hoping to learn lots from this forum and my car buddies.

Six speed manual with a muffler delete... She goes!

Welcome to the Forum, Famke, and congratulations on your nice Black Rose C4!
You are right.....many (most) of us would like Corvettes from the 50s or 60s! Fortunately (I guess), some of us are old enough that we had them when they were just a "used Corvette." Yeah, we should have kept them, but, who knew.
Lot of great members and helpful info in the C4 sections at https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-1984-1996-19/.
Enjoy your ride and save the wave!
