Can’t sleep. Too excited. I just remembered Houston had a huge flood recently and a ton of cars were ruined by water damage. Now here I am about to buy a car from Houston. I’ve already ran a carfax report on the vehicle and it didn’t show anything unusual. Do you guys think that’s enough to be sure that this corvette wasn’t affected by the flood??

lol, relax man. Car dealers are honest hard worki..lol, I can’t even finish the sentence.

but seriously, I’m sure the car is fine. You’re going to give the car a good inspection, might as well also look for signs of flood damage. Google can probably point you for things to look for but I’d guess smelly carpet and rusted bolts inside the car (seat rails)

The night before picking up your first Vette is a tough one filled with excitement. Enjoy the journey

Today is a special moment for me and I wanted to share it with you, my fellow Corvette enthusiasts. Being able to own a Corvette Z06 has been a dream of mine for over a decade now and it’s an amazing feeling being able to realize one’s dream.

Pretty cool isn’t it? I started on Z06Vette.com back in 2000 in my late teenage years, my user name was Vetteless :rofl:
I’ve wanted a Vette since I was a little kid, It's a fun journey and in just a few hours you’ll be able to say you’ve accomplished another little something in your life. Enjoy the ride (life, car, etc)

Most important thing, drive safe. These cars are wild and can lose it pretty quick. If you’re going to get aggressive, I suggest an empty parking lot to get a feel for the tires limits

Although I don't know this shop personally it is a big shop and has lots of customers and locations in both Houston and Dallas. They aren't going to be the type of place that churn and burn flood cars. Enjoy the trip.
