Hey every one my name is Mario and i just bought a 1999 C5 Corvette w/ 12700 miles on it. (I don't know if that's his sn on here too). Although originally a turbo Honda fan
, my beater was a 2000 Impala w/ 120k miles and it impressed me so much in quality and reliability that I decided to upgrade to another one of GM's fine products...
Here's my first pose with her.

Here's some pics from the auto trader ad since it's too dark to take more pics and all I have is my ****ty camera phone at the moment.

Funny thing is my turbo Honda is still faster (409whp), but not for long. I love my Honda as a sleeper, but it feels so good to finally drive a balanced and purpose built bona fide sports car with great torque down low and such high capability on pump gas. The most incredible thing about this car is the low miles! It was bought brand new at the dealer I bought it used from (Kendall Chevrolet in Miami, FL), and only had service done there it's whole life. Carfax came back clean as a whistle. It was an older guy that bought it new (one owner lease then buyout) and he came in and traded it for a brand new C6ZO6. Plans are to boost in the near future, just don't know whether to go with a supercharger or TT kit (which I am so far partial to). Good to be a member of the community!
