Default Finally!!!

Been looking for months and finally decided to do it. Drove 10 hrs from TN to MI and bought an '09 Z-51. They gave me 15K off sticker, so I couldn't resist. Got my first corvette wave on the way back too! And everywhere I stopped ppl couldn't help but compliment.




Crappy pics, but my girl's not so handy with a camera, heh.

Great looking Vette. What was leaking oil on that cardboard in the garage?

My mazdaspeed6 that I traded in. They didn't catch that though I damaged the oil pan tube when I was putting a front mount in. It was a VERY slow leak.

Congratulations!
- Take off the airbag warnings off the visors. They say "children on back seats"! Be careful. Read before you do, or cover them with labels sold on the forum.
- Corvette wave is different than Jeep wave. Make sure you know the difference.

Will do on the stickers. That's the little lady's Wrangler. She's all about the "Jeep Wave". Even though it took me months to organize numbers and figure out my finances. Every second I spent/every piece of paper with the endless budget equations I wrote out. It was worth EVERY bit.

And thanks for the welcome everyone! Now if only I could find that exhaust sound clip thread I've been searching for

A 10 hour drive? Your car should be practically broken in by now.

Have fun!!!

Default Congratulations!!!

So what is it, a 2, or 3LT? A MZ6, or Auto? You asked about exhaust, does it have NPP, dual mode exhaust? No matter what the answers, you have a great ext/int color combo, you got a great deal, and your going to LOVE IT!!!
