Picked My C6 Up Monday
[IMG]
[/IMG]
Happier than a pig in slop. However, the passenger side directional/running lamp is burned out. I had to park it and drive the 06 Taurus. I'm getting it fixed Friday under warranty, but since they got my $ the dealership was in no hurry to get me in.
However, I love the car! I hate the 6-spd. I even locked myself in the car while cleaning it because I left the keys in the house! It's perfect in everyway. I saw it friday for the first time and bought it saturday, picked it up Monday. The C5 was cool, but the C6 is at a whole new level. I just gotta learn to drive a stick better. Life is good! When you have years of hard times eventually when things got good they are even sweeter than I could have imagined even with the car not in the picture, but it helps. I never thought I'd live to own another Vette, I did
Heres to staying Clean, staying positive, stayin optimistic and never giving up

Congratulations and I like your color choice (I'm biased). Just got a new crystal Red Metallic '13 GS last week myself.
Also, good choice on the transparent top. Mine came with one too and I feel claustrophobic without a transparent top. (Anyone want to buy a solid CRM top?).
As for your arms -- it looks like you could probably lift the car to change a tire! .... For me, my exercise is a 16 pound bowling ball which I can toss at 20 MPH. Repeat about 100 times per session.

Congratulations on a great looking Vette.
Once you get the hang of the 6 speed you will enjoy it.
