Default Part of the family now.

I love it even more than I ever imagined. Staying in Frankfurt tonight. I unloaded it and have taken out for dinner.

I have a lot to learn about it. Last night after dinner we got in it and the lights under the rear view mirror wouldn't go out. I either pushed the button left side of the dash or turned it and got it go out. Yesterday was a hectic day. I can't wait to set down and take time to really learn the car. It sure is a blast to drive so far. All 5 miles or so.

Read the Manual, it is a complicated car so read it and re--read it.
I have and still learn things about the car 3 years later, from it and the forums
Good luck

The dealer did good for the most part. I didn't really seem like a priority at the time. Seemed like they was dragging there feet. They was nice and friendly. I really like that they included everything about the cars history with it. All the documentation. I will continue it for the next owner. I was impressed with the finance manager more than anything honest and up front. I didn't finance it through them. I went with my local credit union. However all sales go through them for warranties they offer. He didn't try to pressure me to buy anything extra. I've never seen so many corvettes at one place. They have over 100 new and probably 15 to 20 used. I was pleased that the salesman Kurt helped me with ramps when I loaded it.

Welcome aboard. Enjoy the Twisty’s and Wave. I’d consider installing new FOB batteries and reading up on entering the car with a dead battery using your FOB’s key. New NAV disks are also available at low prices and easy to install.

Congrats!! Welcome to the GS family. There are a number of GS's in Jefferson City given the size of the town. There are 5 in our local club (Heart of Missouri Corvette Club). Here are three of them. Mine's on the left.
