Vette(s): A 1986 coupe currently with 60,000 miles, purchased in August of 2010. G44 - Rear axle 3.07 ratio, Z51 - Performance handling package, FE7 - High performance suspension, FG3 - Preloaded gas shock absorbers, to name a few.
I'm almost ashamed to show mine off here with all these great looking cars but here goes.

I got it about 2 months ago and it's almost totally stock and just turned 59,000 miles.  It needs some paint work and I'd also like to redo the interior.  Plus there are some little nit picky things that I would like to do but all of it will get done as the budget allows.  I have done the stuff that needed doing so it's very drivable and it's a new experience for me.  I've always wanted a 'vette and I finally have one.

Cheers,
Lenny

Ok, so my fingers were in the wrong place.  It's an '86 NOT a '97.  Guess this just goes to show why I don't have a job that requires a lot of typing  lol

Hi Lenny, Congrats on your new Vette!! Not everyone can save they have a Vette let alone want one. Once you have one you are hooked!! Take good care of it because they appreciate in value over the years.

Vette(s): 87 Red Coupe, not as pretty, had 213G miles, great running engine; got 20-21 around town, 27-28 on hwy; I got to drive a Vette, every day for 6 yrs. It was my first; so now I know what the fuss is all about. (Sold it 2015 for $3000, still ran great.)
The first is a pretty neat deal.  Drive it a lot and you'll know what the fuss is all about!  Welcome.
