Hi all! New first time Vette owner! Hi to everyone

Enjoy your stay!!

Welcome to the Forum. Pictures please.

 

[OFS1979]

Thanks for the welcome guys!
Based in Calgary and just bought the vehicle today. Waiting for it to be shipped from another province. Will be posting pics once delivered.
Love the car!
I would be super grateful if someone could provide advice on rims. Are replica rims reliable? Im after the Machined Gloss or Satin black Z51 rims for OEM 18 and 19 inch wheels.
If anyone has a clean set or can point me in the right direction that would be amazing!

Here you go!
Hasnt arrived. You can see why I want to switch the rims!

Hola. Nice car ... and the rims aren't bad. Modern like the car. Consider having them powder coated or painted gloss black.

Congratulations on your first Corvette. And welcome to the forum.....From the picture you posted I am guessing it was a private deal...

Sweet looker, even without the black wheels. Four more posts and you will be eligible to post a wanted ad in our classified section. Might get a bite there from someone changing out wheels.

It was indeed. Had to search for it quite a bit but specifically wanted white auto with 3lt and red leather. Hard to come by from my assessment spending hours and hours online! And thanks for the congrats. Really looking forward to it. Long time awaited. Finally in a position to get one!

 

[Bixter44]

Beautiful car. The white and red is awesome.

Thanks Bixter. Always wanted a white corvette with red leather ever since I laid eyes on the vette “Face” drove in the A Team when I was 8 years old!

Wasn't too far off i think 32 years later

Glad you found the car of your dreams.. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine....I still can't wipe the smile off my face....

Man your head is going to pop. The first drive, in your first Corvette, is nothing less than epic. I do not think I slept for 3 days after that drive.

Congratulations Amigo!

Welcome aboard! I love the C7 in Arctic White. Nice choice. I too am a new owner, having finally purchased my first Vette last September. It had been my dream car for most of my life, and I am loving every minute of ownership. As you can imagine, having purchased it in September meant I would not get to play with it for long before it needed to be stored for the winter, so I am trying to make up for that lost time this season. I see you are in Alberta. There seems to be several of us here, so perhaps we can do an Alberta meet up this year. One of the members tried to organize one in Ponoka for May, but that damn virus screwed up those plans.
Anyhoo, again, welcome!
Dale.
