Finally bought a Corvette
Ok guys, got off to a rocky start on this board, but I'm finally an OWNER!!!
I'm so proud!! Bought a '99 C5 Hatch Pewter w/ black interior last weekend!!
Its got 66,504 miles and a 6-speed manual (not even an option for me). I waited, searched, saved, and finally, its sitting in the garage!! I feel like a 43 year old kid!! The possibilities are endless! Better than any Christmas I remember!!
Pics tomorrow!!
Bryan, in Memphis..

What a coincidence, I just picked up a Pewter 01' a few days ago! Just got back Wednesday morning from CT to MN. That was one helluva drive! I liked the black that my Z06 was, but I really am loving this Pewter a lot more!
Congrats on the new ride!

It's a great feeling, isnt it! I bought my 01 Pewter on Black coupe, M6 in April. I've had my 73 Stingray for years but always wanted a modern vette for a sunny day driver. I was finally was able to pull the trigger this year. Enjoy!
