Greetings from Dallas, TX
Not my first Corvette, but my first where I'm active on the forum. Previously had an '02 Z06 and '10 Grand Sport.
Bought this '91 from a forum member, and couldn't be any happier.
Did some research, and while rare doesn't equate to value, it does have an interesting spec. 1991 with base leather seats, FX3 and performance rear axle (250hp), 6 speaker premium Bose system, engine oil cooler, and two tops.
Why did I buy it?
My father was a car guy his whole life, but he put that on hold to raise two kids. When I was around 10, I begged him to get something we could work on together. My mom gave him permission, and he ended up buying this exact car. A turquoise metallic '91. I basically spent my childhood growing up in this car. When I saw this one for sale, I had to have it. 27k miles, and far nicer than the one he had!

That is a sweet ride, congratulations on the find! I have a little bit of a soft spot for 91's too, I had one for a few years, what seems like a long time ago now. Love the color. Enjoy!
