Hello from Morganton, GA
New C8 owner here (2024, Z51 Stingray 1LT, Riptide Blue Metallic). 70 yrs old and just retired from 50 yrs of motorcycle riding so I turned my RoyalStar Venture touring bike into a Corvette!

Hello there. I think this is a good choice. My dad is also thinking of buying a convertible as it is his dream since he was young. Thanks to
interra credit union customer service I know his dream will come true. It is so cool honestly! I know that after the purchase he will also register on this site and will share photos of his purchase!
