I turned 50 this year and promptly bought my first "Vette. It was about time I started really enjoying life - and it definitely helps.

Waited until the kids were raised and through college, before I bought by 1981 at age 50. I am now 54 and drive it day during the season. Miss it terribly during the winter months.

Definitely younger than my 26 year old son; even younger than the one in college at times. "Youth is a horrible thing to be wasted on young people."

Last night I was 16; this morning I feel like spilled puke---must mean I'm 51, but a T-topless cruise with the wife of my youth will re-align all the vibes.

But, "how old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?"

Suppose this is the Official Best Age poll.

VetteChick73

Some options can be determined easily. 1) Good taste- C3 owner. 2) Good attitude, suitable for a VetteChick- about custom cars "I wanna race it."
