New C5 owner
Brand new C5 owner. First Corvette ever.
Didn't really plan to buy a Vette, but I couldn't pass up the deal I got, and I'm loving it so far.

A very good friend of the family owns 4 Vettes and decided she wanted to part with one. I got the homie discount.
Car is in amazing shape aside from a few very small repairs that need to be done. When she offered it to me, I couldn't say no.
