I purchased my first corvette today. I have wanted one since i was very young and at age 21 I have finally been able to fulfill my dream. Drove out to Michigan on sunday and came home today with it. It took 12 cars to finally get to this point but I think this one will be around for a while. (Especially if ShadowHawk- Matt gives me his rims). I will post pics tomorrow after a good wash and wax but just picture in your head a stock black 2001 Z06 with tints... 24 hours worth of driving in 36 hours is crazy by yourself. I thought I would never make it but it was all worth it. Only had to dodge one deer and a flying cone... other than that the trip was uneventful

Selling Verizon FiOS

irocz2173 06-22-2010 07:56 AM

not on Beechwood rd right? my boss has fios and the battery in his box is dead. Do you have any idea how much one of those batteries costs? the alarm is so annoying to listen to when we are hitting up his kegerator after work

Haha How long ago has he had FiOS? Some of the earlier installations had battery issues and if you contact Verizon they will replace the battery because there was a bad batch of ONT's and Batteries.

baddest434 06-22-2010 02:31 PM

congrats on the new car! enjoy it.

Knipps 06-23-2010 12:33 AM

Hrm my FiOS battery needs to be replaced too...

Wolfblitz 06-23-2010 12:49 AM

Congratz on the new car. Just stay safe

B4C 06-23-2010 09:47 AM

maroman88 06-23-2010 03:39 PM

coool! i worked my way up the ranks and finally bought mine this past december, its a freakin blast, so much better the anything else ive had, just watch out for the problems that ALL C5's have, theres no avoiding them lol... sign up on corvetteforum.com if u havent already

irocz2173 06-23-2010 10:26 PM

been a member for the last 5 years:wink: I took pics tonight but i will have to wait to upload them tomorrow. Its so nice to finally have a car that handles. Trans Ams have too much weight to throw around. The car is quick, prob faster than the last trans am but I need to get used to how quiet and docile it is.

irocz2173 06-23-2010 10:27 PM

oh and any way you could hook us up with some discounted batteries grandmastercow?

j0n 06-24-2010 11:22 AM

Ugh... just what the world needs. Another friggin corvette driver. Stupid fiberglass pieces of crap.

irocz2173 06-24-2010 12:33 PM

i am going to ignore that comment, judging by his previous posts he seems like a true jackass.

Lighten up, you'll live longer. I have a piece of crap plastic car too. If you can't take some abuse you won't last long on the vette boards. :moon:

irocz2173 06-24-2010 12:48 PM

been on the vette boards for 5 years. Just scrolled through your previous posts and it didnt seem like you had anything worth saying

irocz2173 06-24-2010 09:21 PM

I have no idea how to resize the images but the pics are posted in my original post

mixtape 06-24-2010 10:02 PM

Replacements are pretty cheap. Just put a new one in at my mom's house a few months ago....I believe it was ~$32 shipped to her door.
