Hi all, we just bought an 89 coupe/auto, with 42.9k miles. It's our first vette, after wanting one for many years. We're in our 40s so we're calling it our mid-life crisis car. LOL
This pic is from the seller, we haven't brought it home yet, it's getting the air conditioning repaired. That, and a bad speaker, are the only issues so far.
More pictures after we get it home.

Vette(s): Gone, but not forgotten: 1974 Coupe Red, matching numbers, Black Interior, L-48 w/ 4 speed; The “Admiral”, also gone and never to be forgotten. 1994 Admiral Blue LT-1 coupe, Black Interior Automatic

All Corvettes are born red, so just get painted! Nice ride!

There is no substitute for low end torque!

Vette(s): I have a 1996 Collector Edition coupe with the 6 speed/LT4 engine. Looks and runs like new. 203 coupes were exported to Canada for 1996 and of those, only 83 of them had the Z15 option.
Hi!  I love the colour of your car and I know you'll have a load of fun driving it!
 
Mind you, I think that Corvettes are addictive because I've seen another I'd like to get but alas, lack of space and funds dictates I remain faithful to my "Silver".
