Hi :)
Hi. My name is Mike and one of my addictions is cars/SUV's 
This is my first Corvette. Its a 2007, Atomic Orange, 6 spd manual, black leather, 3LT, chrome wheels, transparnet roof, magnetic ride, etc. I wanted the Z51 but the options were either LeMans Blue with the Z51 or Atomic orange with the mag ride and the color was the deciding factor as I like "WOW" vehicles and this color is definitly a "WOW" one.
My other vehicles are a 2007 Chevy Tahoe LTZ, 2006 H2 Hummer custom built by GM for the Dayton Auto Show, 1977 Chevy Monte Carlo- swivel buckets, console, 350 V-8 and 82K miles..grandparents car, a 1972 Olds 442, fully documented with a 455 Big Block, buckets, console, etc and a 1998 ford Ranget XLT for hauling crap.
My other addictions are pinball and video game machines.I have 35+ pinball amchines and 50+ video game machines.
What prompted the Corvette purchase wasI sold my wifes 2003 Escalade and my 1997 Camaro Z28. I had wanted a Shelby Cobra GT500 but the seats were to much of a tight fit for a guy my size, 6 ft 4 265lbs so I tried the Corvette out when my wife went to drive the 07 tahoe and the car was a great fit...go figure... So there we have it. I am a first time owner and I hope it wont be my last one.
Bought it with 8 miles on it and have 67 as of lunch time
Now to find some performance mods to get up to the HP of a Z06.

RE: Hi :)
Welcome to both the site and Vette ownership. As a new Vette owner I must tell you that you have to keep the wave alive (all Vette owners are suppose to wave at one another). It is more common with the older generation Vettes, but all should participate.
