Default Finally! Just bought my first Corvette!!

I've been looking at C7 Corvettes for almost 2 years. I've read tons of posts on here trying to educate myself on these beautiful cars. I was finally able to make my first Corvette purchase. Then it's snowed for the next 3 days and I havent been able to drive it. Oh well, plenty of time for that. I can't wait til warmer weather so I can take the top off. Thanks for all the great information. I'm sure I will have lots of questions!!!!

I took about that long in research also, a part of the pleasure, I think.
Congratulations.

That looks just like a Laguna Blue C7 that I see parked outside the Boeing Factory here in Everett. Is that you? Congrats either way!
