Thanks for the add. I’ve been Vetteless for a while and bought a silver 2011 Grand Sport today with only 11,800 miles on it. Bought it from a Chevrolet dealership and validated the low mileage. Automatic car. It doesn’t have touchscreen so I’ll be upgrading that soon. I’m interested in recommendations. Car is in amazing condition. Really as new. Looking forward to interacting with everyone. I’m in Houston, Texas area. Thanks, Dave

Welcome, Dave, and congratulations on our new C6 GS! Wow, with that very low mileage, it sounds as if someone has just broken it in for you! I hope that yours brings you as much joy as mine has brought me!

Beautiful C6 you found and very low mileage. Check out the C6 sections of the forum where you will find a lot of information and knowledgeable members.

And welcome to the forum.
