Default Sold two C4's over the weekend

Oh, feels so good to clear out some room. Ditched one race car and another 93 that was destined to be another race car. Didn't get pics of the race car leaving as it was dumping rain. Now down to three C4's.

Someone must have gotten a great deal without the targa.

That’s a lot of C4’s for someone not in love with these things.

I sold my one and only this year.

Someone once told me....buying a corvette is the second happiest day of your life. The happiest day is when you sell it...

No joke, need to get rid of one more and I’ll be down to a happy number. Looking something German to fill the gap.

that saying is usually about a boat, I sold 3 corvettes and selling them ended up being a not so happy day.

To each his own......

One man's treasure is another man's trash......

Don't get me wrong.....had 17 wonderful years with it but ready to move on to something else. Seasons change and so did I...I will say that selling a C4 is not winning the lottery by any means so that could ruin someone's day too, understand. C4's are better bought than sold in my estimation.

B O A T .....(aka Bust Out Another Thousand). Never dived into the boat hobby for a number of reasons........cost vs. enjoyment being the main one........My favorite boats are the ones my friends own!

On the other topic of German cars to fill the void.......I will tell you this as an owner of a BMW. Great driving, handling, braking, etc.......BUT they tend to like cash thrown at them too. The maintenance on these things is at a high level in terms of replacement parts, labor, and the engineering in them tend to lend itself to failure of certain things........As far as Audi, Mercedes, VW; no experience.

Owned an E36 in the past, loved that car. But none of the newer BMW’s float my boat. Garage space will be filled with a Stuttgart product. Probably of the 997.2 or 991.1 variety.
