Default 65 degrees....top comes down for the first time

Bought the car in November and been cold ever since. This is the first day its been nice enough to ride with the top down. Unbelievable! Can't believe how much quieter it is with the top down. Glad I waited and got a vert instead of a coupe. Got many looks and completments. You gotta love the south.

Hey! I put the top down today in New Joyzee!! It was a beautiful day. I went for a couple of drives earlier in the month, but I had the top up. I think I was shoveling snow just last week and putting the vette on rollers, pushing it off to the side of the garage. Then we had some rain to rinse the salt off the roads, and today over 60 degrees... :) MJ

Top came down on mine today as well! Even fixed a couple of little things that had been bugging me. Great day to be alive. Wont last long I'm afraid.
