Welcome to the club !! I love the color, but have fun keeping it clean. Black looks the best when freshly detailed but ugh when its not. You are a lucky SOB, summer is coming and you'll be riding around Cali in beautiful c5 Vert. Good luck with the ladies but you won't need much with that car.

Very nice! I see some nice mod's, Rotor's, C6 Chrome
Rims, Calipers are done.

I see some pride of ownership form the previous owner, looks a good find.

Welcome to your new career "Black"

No idea what brand havent been able to sniff it out yet. Mods to my knowledge are as follows; Blackwing intake, coil overs, baer brakes, "tune", x-pipe welded in place of h-pipe, possible short shifter ( I dont know what a vette shifter should feel like). and possible thermostat.

Several interior changes as well.

Take a couple of suspension photo's & maybe we can help identify what is done.
