Hawaii bound c6 - New to me
Super excited; I just purchased my very first c6. Been wanting one for a while, but they never seem to pop up where I live. Extended my search to the mainland and as luck would have it; the exact car I was looking for popped up. The hard part now is the 2 week wait for it to arrive to Honolulu port. I was really impressed with the cleanliness of this car. 90K on the odometer and 100% stock. Immediate future plans include black wheels 20/19, Headers, Exhaust, CAI, Cam. Not sure on exhaust path just yet or cam specs, but research is half the fun. Wish me luck fam.

Looks well cared for. Good luck. It's really not a hard color to care for and besides, it's a labor of love.

Beautiful!! Pics make it look like new. These are great cars for cruising, seeing the sights. Should be a rare and admired car in Hawaii.
Try to hold off on the mods for a couple months. If you are like many of us, what you want to do to the car may change several times. Give yourself some time to enjoy the stock vehicle before you mod it...JMO.

Aloha, you made smart move, love the color, enjoy cruising around Island showing off your ride, and believe there is still a Corvette Club on the Island you might want to join, to have more fun.

Having your first Corvette, you might want to google Corvettes parts, you will find lot parts place to buy parts, stay away from Corvette mods, there not reliable, but there Zip Corvettes, Ecklers, Mid-America, and many others all will send you catalog book free to see what the parts they sell, also on the net.
I will say E-bay is a good source for parts, and U-Tube to learn how to replace parts and get knowledge of you ride.
You never said what year, I saw LS2, and if you have 2005, here is your owners manual on the internet, they all same functions, so while you are waiting, start reading, and learn, there is lot to learn about the Corvette.
