Down to just my '08 now
Already, I think I have seller's remorse but I sold my 1981 Corvette yesterday. Got my money back out of it and it went to an older gent who will drive the crap out of it. She only had 28,446 miles (original) and was purt near mint.
Now down to my '08, which isn't going anywhere. Difference between the two is night and day in performance, comfort, convenience and handling so, keeping the '08 is a no brainer.

Oh, trust me, I am enjoying the '08. Had it almost 3 months now, taken several trips with it, have put almost 7000 miles on it. It's not going anywhere anytime soon!

Well I hope you don't miss that 190 hp monster to much. 
Got rid of my 220 hp 1985 monster myself. No comparison at all to a C6.

No, definitely no comparison. And the new owner is a Corvette fan from way back. He's like a kid in a candy store. Smiles from ear to ear.

The C3 might have been short of HP but it still ranks as the nicest looking sports car ever (IMHO). I choose a C6 over the C3 due to the technology difference as well but can understand your pain

It's not his first 'Vette, only the last in a long line......
I could post pics if I was smart enough to get them off my phone, but I'm not.
It is a Heritage edition. Ivory over Bronze. Doeskin leather interior and 100% stock, except for the tires.
He's tickled as I was when I bought it. BUT technology brought us the C6, which I am enjoying the H#$% out of.
