Default Hello from Ohio

Hello! My name is Michael and I'm an attorney in Dayton, Ohio. I'm a lifelong car and motorsports enthusiast but have never owned a Corvette. My past sports cars include a Triumph TR250, (my first car), MGB, Toyota MR2, Z28 Camaro, 2 Porsche Boxsters, a supercharged Miata, and a long string of Jags. My father owned several Corvettes from the 60s and 70s and I have driven several.

I'm currently looking for a C7, Z51 equipped, manual car. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
