Finally...
Hey all,
I've been reading the site for a few weeks, while I waited for my first Vette. It finally came on Friday, just in time for some great weather. What a great car! C06 A6 Z51 and I'm just having lots of fun with it. Can't wait to meet Tom and see what he can do for it. My only disappointment is that I'm starting to regret the A6 choice...but I'm going to give it some time...

Awesome color. We just got back from a tour of the Corvette assembly plant, and that color was my favorite of all of the cars on the line.

Were you on I-5 (Tualatin - Sherwood exit) on Saturday night ~ 8:00 pm? I was on that off-ramp and thought I saw your car

LOL, Bluefire...yes, that was me! I was wondering if I might see you in this forum. That's really one of the nicest C05s I've seen!

Belated congratulations!
I love that color! If it wasn't for my habit of driving a bit above the speed limit, and wanting to keep a low profile, that's probably the color I would have gotten.
Great choice on the rims too - one of the best options available in my book!
Enjoy!

Thanks! I have had it for a year and I still grin everytime I look at it.
It is quite a small "Corvette" world. However, as nice as your car is, you should still be prepared to get bit HARD by the "mod bug". I wonder why there is not a support group for this.
