My wife and I have been driving this vette for 39 years, and we are still married. I call it a 69 chevy.

Very nice!

[Crusty]

All right, after a day of Googling (instead of working... lol), I am sold on the 'vette.

Now I just gotta decide... convertible (or at least the coupe), or extra HP. Leaning towards the drop top... since it is already gonna be faster than anything I've had before anyway.

This one is a souped up 07 Z51, kicking out 474 HP!

This one is a little more than I want to spend... but it is at the dealer my ex works at, so maybe I can get a deal on it. I like the brown/black interior.

That is a awesome color combination!  Very nice.

Red is faster but
The convertible with B&B interior is very snappy (that brown is light enough to make it looks almost B&O).

Either way I am sure you'll have fun.

Sure can't go wrong  buying a Corvette. Good luck and let us know how she goes when you get it

The good thing about the Vette was the chassis was designed to be a drop top, not a hardtop with the roof cut off, so the chassis rigidity will support the 'vert and the high HP...

There are a couple of Z06 conversions into convertibles floating around....

Go get that black one,,, go do it now,,,,, dont fart around it wont last long..... i got my eyes on it too...

lol... if you're interested in a non-convertible black with that interior, this is a pretty sweet deal too: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-corvettes-for-sale/2777179-fs-socal-2008-black-sienna-4lt-z51-mn6-npp-nav-chrome-wheels-gmpp-extended-warranty.html

Still torn which way to go... these 'vette guys are worse than Harley riders... 10 year old cars under 10K miles, never driven in the rain, always garaged... why would you spend that much money not to take it out and DRIVE it!!

Yesterday my wife accused me of being like a dog chasing a car... and then doesn't know what to do with it once I catch it... lol

Certainly don't NEED to spend $30K on another vehicle, with a $30K HD and another bike in the garage... so I'm kinda back to looking at an older Porche under $10K, something I don't feel guilty about parking outside (DAMN one car garage    ), yet is still fun to drive.

Hard part is being obsessive, so I feel like I NEED to get something now... trying to settle down and keep my eye out for a smokin' deal to pop up...

Dont I know your problem... I wanted a 454SS pickup.. scanned the ads, posted a wanted ad (Bad idea.. peoples prices DOUBLE when  you post a wanted ad.) got tired of that game quickly and said fuggit....  I WANT one.. dont NEED it.. though it feels like I do, and I can justify it to myself...

If you only have a single car garage... buy another bike...
