I joined this forum back in '06 when I was looking for a '79-80's model...and then went thru a divorce and had to give up the search.
Well, here it is about 3 years later...adjusting to single life again (after 30 years of marriage) and finally bought my dream car this weekend. 1999 C5, torch red hardtop, black leather, LS1 - 6 speed with ~85,000 miles. I freakin' LOVE this thing! Everything I expected a Vette to be and even more.
The car is pure stock right now. It has the silver painted rims which will be my first upgrade and then maybe a Borla or some kind of exhaust to enhance the rumble effect (any suggestions / recommendations welcome). I live in WV but this car spent most of it's life in NC. According to CarFax, the previous owner relocated to WV a couple years ago.
I'm sure as I experience ownership I'll have a million questions for you lucky long-time owners. What did we do before the internet?!
Looking forward to getting to know everyone. I'll try and figure out how to edit my profile and add a pic.
