Yeeeeeeeassssssssssssss
I FINALLY GOT MY VETTE!!!!! Man, I've been wanting this thing for over a decade, and have been shopping around for it off and on for the past 3 years, but I finally found one to call my own!!! She's got 75k miles, and aside from the AC, is all original. Interior is damn near spotless and so far it's been 500 miles (that's in less than a week because I just wanna keep driving this thing) with no incident... well no incident aside from having to replace the alternator yesterday night. But hey, if anything that just makes me even more part of the club right?
I'm used to driving a Toyota Corolla and this thing is everything I expected it to be. As in the exact opposite of that shitbox. I've been getting thumbs up left n right since I started driving it. And I wasn't aware of this, but apparently as soon as you buy one of these things you're immediately a part of the Chevy v.s. Ford war as a coworker let me know (by calling my car a cute plastic wedge). Anyways, enough talking, here's some pics!!

Beautiful C3 and the beach shots were colorful! Yep, happy that you discovered that driving a 'Vette vs. a regular old crapola car is night and day. You don't have that sucky feeling of plodding along in some econo-box ugly POS vehicle that has all the personality of stale crackers.
No sirreee, you're in a sexy, curvaceous, beautiful Corvette, coddled in a comfy cockpit, with some good tunes and loving life. That's why I stared at my 74' for awhile this morning, telling her, 'Baby, it ain't gonna be long'.
