Default Just bought another Corvette!

Today, I got the call I had been waiting for. My buddy Art just bought himself a 2006 ZO6 and I just bought his old 2001 ZO6. Hopefully I'll be able to fly out this weekend to pick it up. Now I have to sell my 1990 Corvette and my 1993 Corvette. I just don't need to hang on to 4 Corvettes.

C'mon bite the bullett and keep the '81. That one is too unique to sell off and I bet it's a romp to hit the gas!

Just another to add to the list of those moving from the C4 to the C5. Congrats are in order. If I could do it, I would probably make the move too.
