Had an 02 manual and traded for an 06 auto with paddles. Almost immediately decide the vette w/auto paddles was an entirely different driving experience. Not bad, but different. Traded the 06 auto for an 07 manual. When my left leg falls off I'll think about going back to an auto. Until then...
Too Cool!
Awesome. My two favorite colors. It's great that you were able to get the personalized plates. I'm waiting for my wife to catch the vette virus so we can have both a coupe and a vert in the barn.

Other options.
Wisconsin is a 2 plate state. I found a nice option from Innovative Auto Products (http://www.iaproducts.com/home/). The support bracket mounts to the rear of the facia, which takes a little elbow grease and is much easier if you have access to a lift. I did mine from the...
Back at 'ya!
Welcome aboard! I've got to get back down there one of these days for a vacation. Was stationed in Millington while in the Navy - loved Memphis and had in ball in Shelby State Forest. Is there still an Overton Square? That was one of our fun spots back in the 70's. Yes, I've...
Hello from Wisconsin!
Welcome aboard! :w
Great forum and lot's of good advice and commentary. Enjoy.
Here in southern Wisconsin I think spring has sprung. Should rain tomorrow and wash the salt off the roads, then sunny and 40s (maybe 50 :chuckle) on Saturday. I'm feeling it. Cover is coming...
It's a tie!
The very first was a simultaneous order for the skip shift eliminator and Billy Boat exhaust so dealer could have them installed prior to taking delivery.
Second was "subtle" splash guards from Mid America Motorworks:

Let us know how you like them. It's always good to have real customer information to go on when it's time to buy "new shoes for the baby!" ;)
I've got a new toy so will be running the stock Goodyears for awhile, but on my last one I replaced the Goodyears with Michelin Pilot Sport run flats...
I tried the Speedlingerie last year and really like it. Costs more than most but I think it's offers good quality and value for the money. A nice feature is that you can order the front plate holder which is fully enclosed and can be zippeder on/off in 10 seconds if an ornery bear comes a...
'bout time!
Welcome aboard! :w
My wife wasn't too keen on our first vette either ("Why would you need something like that...?") but after some caravan events, as well as just everyday rides, she admits she loves the corvette experience. It really is an American icon. Thanks for your years...
I've owned a couple of BMW X5s, and can't say that the interior of the beemer was significantly different or better than the corvette. I often wondered what the fuss was about cuz it never appeared to me that there was that much difference.
That said, I would like to see a fastener on the...
Check out the "Site Help and Feedback" forum on the main page. Here are two helpful posts from that forum. I personally use "Photobucket" to handle pic posting and resizing: http://photobucket.com/.

The first vette I owned was a 2002, and I did the museam delivery :upthumbs. My wife couldn't get off work, but I took my son Bryan along and let him drive it around the parking lot. He was 15 at the time. In this picture he's ducked down in the front passenger seat to avoid being captured on...
Damn! That black vette took a beating, although the passenger compartent seems pretty well intact. Ya' hate to see a road warrior go down like that...

Bullet
I think the BB Bullet fills out the exhaust area nicely. I added the center section x-pipe and resonator and it sounds great: just the right amount of rumble with a minimum of resonance. Picture is kinda dark since I bought a digital camera with too many buttons on it and can't figure...
