That other poll got me thinking, what does it matter how old you are, if you have owned the Corvette for a decade or more?

So, my question then is,


What age were you when you got your FIRST C4?

I finally purchased a Corvette at the age of 33. That was almost 6 years ago.

I got my first, a 90 6speed coupe, when I was 20. I got my current one, 92 6speed coupe, when I was 23. I made the mistake of getting rid of the 90, and I went to the dark side for 3 years (bmw) but I'm back now!
