Default On the hunt
Hello all, here is my first post!!
I'm 25, in the final stages of divorce, got hooked here (just reading and stuff) by my dad, OURRUBY. Now i'm hunting for one for myself. 91-95, for like 15K. Found one today, polo green, tan interior, 79K miles, for 14,990. Going to look at it saturday. Shoulda listend to what i said when i was 5... Vette first, then wife... oh well :confused:
Dad wont sell me his ruby, so i have too look for my own C4 :(

Hope to see you all on the road soon! :seeya

and of course, hell yes i'll wave!

Welcome to the forum, that is good advice, vette first then wife. Too bad you dont live a little closer, you could go to some of the misfit get togethers, and meet all your dads misfit friends. :D :cheers:
