I'm in a two-plate state (Washington) and have never had a problem with only running with one plate, if I do, I will just pay the fine.

I would advise you to buy the newest C6 that you can find because each year is a little more advanced. I would also like to let you know that there is a third option of a Fixed Roof Coupe AKA a Z06.

I still own the first Corvette that I bought, it's a 1960 that I bought 35 years ago. I also have a few others. Corvettes are like potato chips, you can't have just one.
