Default 50th Anniversary convertible headed to Texas from BUDS

It's always fun when folks fly in from all over the USA for a BUDS Chevrolet Corvette. Paul from Texas flew to Ohio yesterday for this awesome 5000 mile 03 Anniversary convertible. Should be a fun ride home !!

P.S. Be sure to check for "shock stuffers" see attached photo. With only 5000 miles there is a good chance you may still have them. Found mine at 28000 miles, big difference in the ride.

Congrats! Enjoy it. Got mine with 847 miles back in '07. She was part of the corvette collection by the dealer's owner. Already put in 40k awesome miles in 4 years!

Another example here of a low milage Anniversary Edition that was essentially preserved for the next owner.

Congratulations on your new to you A/E Vert !

No car will ever leave BUDS with the shock stuffers in place. It is the first thing I look for when I buy any 03-04 cars with mag ride. Found lots of stuffers in place that other dealers mised. Had a guy traveling across the USA in his 04 Commemorative car last year stop by the store. He had 60K miles on his car that he bought new in Florida. Said he loved the car but hated the ride....................... You know the rest. 60K miles with the shock stuffers in place !!!!
