2006 Corvette Manual Transmission Slow Leak ?
I had new mufflers put on my 2006 Corvette with manual transmission. As my car was up in the air, I looked at the transmission, I notice a very small drop of fluid around the seal. I touched it and it was slightly wet. Put when I got home, I checked my driveway for spots and I didn't see any. Anyone else out there know of this problem. I read a little about others on Corvette Forum. I bought it 4 days ago off of a showroom floor. Dealer say they never noticed the problem (Of Course). Worried but the car is Beautiful and runs great.

Body Kit for 2007 Corvette?
Hi guys, I would really like some opinions on this kit for the vette. I'm torn between modifying mine, or buying something a little more exotic (like a Viper or an Exige). Personally, I like the kit and I think it gives it an exotic look, but if I say that on the Corvette forum, I'll get flamed because in their book it's blasphemy to visually modify the Corvette. Anyways, here's a few pics and a youtube video of what the kit looks like: http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo191/gqjeremy/1-12.jpg http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo191/gqjeremy/M118508739.jpg http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo191/gqjeremy/geiger1.jpg http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo191/gqjeremy/geiger2.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kInb4OUBDcY Thanks again.
