Default My first Corvette...what a dream!

Just wanted to quickly say hello and introduce myself. A couple months ago I realized a long time dream by buying my first corvette, which is a 2016 Stingray in Shark Grey. I have quickly become a fanatic for detailing and love everything about this car. Anyway, I am in the Bay Area, and look forward to connecting with others and discussing our respective corvettes.

Here is a glimpse of my car, as well as my photography:
