Default Another FNG!

Hi everyone, I just signed the papers on this 2017 ZO6 with 950 miles, and I couldn't be happier to join the community and check another box on a lifelong goal. I've owned Cobras, M cars, and some other great vehicles, but this is a great day for me!
Now I get to wait for her to be shipped home, but in the mean time I'm hoping to learn all the must-dos for the C7.

Happy to be here and I look forward to talking with y'all!

-Wes

Thank you sir! I was looking for a manual, but I could not pass up an A-8 with 950 miles.

Holy smokes, what a cherry find! Congratulations and welcome to the brotherhood/sisterhood of Corvettes and to the Forum. Best wishes that your journey with your Corvette is as much fun as mine has been. Tremendous looking Corvette and less that a thousand mile? Impressive.
