Hello to everyone, I recently purchased a 1994 Coupe and after reading the threads posted on this forum decided to join in. I was asked shortly after I got mine if I was having a mid life crisis? My reply to them was, "I don't know but if a mid life crisis feels this good, I love it". Between the looks and comments from strangers about the car and the pure joy of driving a "Vette" I swear I have died on gone to heaven. As much as I like driving it, I hope to WAVE at everyone in the country.

If I did it correctly my picture should now be in the profile as JCD requested...

Read on here somewhere that it's not a mid-life crisis, but a mid-life arrival!

Welcome! :

A little while after buying mine, a morning radio program here did a piece where they could tell your personality by the car you drive. When they got to Corvette, their comment was "a guy with a mid-life crisis who can't afford a real sports car". I accepted the first part, but unless someone wants to buy me a Ferrari, I'm perfectly happy with the Corvette.
