Default C6 Lust

My wife and I were on a day trip in the vette and I passed a new C6 on the super slab. I told my wife that I wanted one of those. I saw that immediatly she had regonized my lust for a new car. Her response was that I was driving the last new car I was ever going to get. I figure if I wait about 20 years she will let me have a C6 but then I will be 84 and lusting after something else. The day trip was beautiful with fall colors. My wife really enjoyed the ride (Her first long ride in the C4) Although we had dated some 42 years ago in my dads 1960 vette. Ahh youth springs eternal with a good vette.

I wasn't crazy for the new C6 at first, but after seeing up close in person and spending time for it. I share your feelings.
