Default I Hate My C4.....

Yeah, drove up in the driveway and opened the garge door and there she was sitting there, and I couldn't see it. I hate the look of it I said as I walked to it. So what did I do I walked around back to it's butt and I pulled up the car cover and took it off. I stood back and man fell in love all over again.
Yes, that dark red metallic car with the glass just got me going and I opened the door and sat there in it.
Only one problem I have about 4 or so week before I hook it up again and voom voom that baby out the door! :cry
We're getting close. ;)

Thats the one thing I DO like about living in Calif....theres only a few days a year I cant drive the vette and thats just due to rains. We still manage to do our So Cal Mtn Runs once a month. Hope you get it out of hibernation soon.

Why would you hate the look of you’re C4? Are you being tempted buy DEVIL :reddevil in an attempt to cast you eye's towards the horribly disfigured C6.

I apologize to ductape I didn't mean to scare you.

No have no plans on that C6. It's very nice, but my baby is staying right where she's at. She's only got 25K on her and she's treated like a queen. I hope to be adding more garage space so all my babies can fit in. The boat will be coming home soon and then there's the other cars. I'm hoping to add a another spot and making it double deep. My two babies can be together. Then they will know where to find me. :lol:

I know people tow with their Corvette's but no I have something that tows it. I couldn't ask her to do that! :nono:
