My new ride
My new ride, a 2001 Corvette. Quicksilver metallic with black interior. Automatic, 2.73 rear. Stock for now, only bc i want to see what she does bone stock this tuesday at atco, weather permitting 
People's responses to going auto have been either "why?" or "thats gay" or both in the same sentence lol. well if they truuuuully knew me, they'd understand why i didnt want to get another 6spd. And i think most of you guys and gals who know me on here understand why too lol.
i actually found the front license plate filler panel in the trunk, i put that on today. yes i know i can get a ticket for it, but out of 5 years with both fbodies being plateless up front and only getting one ticket in franklin twp, ill take my chances 
pics were taken with my cell phone. ill have to wait until it's sunny again to get some good pics with my brother's camera.
snapped these on the way home on saturday
Picked up the wheels/tires on sunday from demonicbird00. thanks brandon!
i definately want to the sidemolding delete, and theres a few other appearance mods il do as well
future mods will be- a stall converter somewhere in the 3200-3600 range, drag radials, and of course- intake, full exhaust, tune. I'll go with 3.73-4.10 gears next year. Lowering the car a lil bit wouldnt be out of the question either

Congrats man. You'll enjoy it. I miss mine. Side molding delete is a must. A good stall and tune will really wake the car up.
I had the Vararam intake on mine...decent piece.

i like!!!
mines an auto as well, but has the performance rear option, iirc 3:23's or 42's. i did an LS6 manifold, CAI, borla straight pipes and a pcmforless tune (didnt let them touch the shift points) and it breaks the 1-2 shift WAY loose! best car ive ever owned.
join corvetteforum.com and in teh C5 section is ALL of the info u will ever need

i love those black zo6 with chrome rivets. Almost got them on my silver camaro. I love c5's
i have gotten the chance to drive m6's and autos plus the auto c5 my father owns. I honestly felt like the autos were more responsive and almost a little faster

So whats the post baseline run plan for it?
As said i bet a TC, 3.73s and a tune would make that thing really wake up.
