Hi Members,
Been around Corvettes most of my live. Final bought first in 06, 2000 C5 Magnetic Red/ Black/ coupe. Third owner- loved it! Sold in 2013, to buy 2011 GS Z16 Cystal Red/Casmer. Now sold 11 back to family member I bought from. Looking for the next one. Have surfed Corvette Forum for years, almost became member several yrs. ago? Have gotten a lot of good info on forum.
The first Corvette for me was when I was around17/18. Had an older High School friend graduate. His Dad ran a garage around two miles from our house. And the dad had money to send him to Collage, but the son, no I'll stay work with you. The dad told him, well I'll buy you that Corvette for graduation. 57 Blk/ silver cloves/ red inter. fuel injection and that is when I fell in love with a Corvette. Frist Fuell in S.C.at the time. Use to love to sit in front Yard, when he got off work. Listen to him go through the gears and down shifting for Stop sign at in of block. Music. Well hope I didn't wear you down with all this.
Thanks, Wave2me

My new to me C7 ZO6
Well member's here's what it came to. Quite a step up from a 2011 C6 GS Z16. Had look in the forum and net. Keep going back this one and had an alternate if it didn't work out. Drove to Fayetteville N.C. area. Check it out, drove, bought on the spot. What a hoot , not my norm to be that quick. It's a 2015 ZO6 ZO7 .had just under 14K (turn yesterday) Night Race Blue. Didn't think I would get until today, shipper call Sat. had driver head my way got it late Sat. Vette has been well taken care of. Came with window sticker, sole in up state N.Y. Almost in Canada. Call dealer, talked to salesman that new the car. Gentleman that had it, was very particle and never drove during winter, garaged. Dealer I bought from didn't know any more other , Vette sold/trade in Fl. one owner. I'm going to try PICS attachment. Wish me luck ! What's going on PICS at top of screen- header?
