Default Betty Boop 2004-2015

Every Corvette's has it's destiny. Today Betty Boop moved on to her new owner Steve from Omaha, NE.

She was a great car, and never let me down. She was the most reliable car that I've own yet.

a recap of 11 glorious years

Looks like you had a lot of good times with her. Great pics, it wasn't even my car and I think I miss her almost as much as you do lol.

Talk about getting the most out of a car. That had to be a sad letter her go.

She's a beauty, and I'm sure she was glad to be in your care for so long.

WOW! Beautiful car and photos of our great country. Great to see a C4 going places. I know how hard it is to keep one clean when you drive them, but you did wonders with that one. I hope mine takes me as far as yours did!

I've become a little numb to missing a car when I sell it-it doesn't bother me. I wish I still had my jeep, but that's about it... anyhow- one less thing to spend money on and you can finally park the DD indoors!
