Default First time Corvette Owner
Hi all. Duane D from Stratford Ontario Canada. New to the forum and finally purchased my first Corvette

Super exiting for me......She is a 2016 Z06/Z07
Brownstone leather vert with a Kalahari top.
7000 miles a one owner car I purchased in South Carolina and had shipped to Ontario. Absolute incredible car to drive and enjoy on a sunny day. She definitely turns some heads I know it’s not me lol
