Default Some C5 owners...

The other day I was out driving around in my Millenium Yellow Z06, and some guy with a Mag Red coupe, with his top off pulls up next to me at a light. My car was a little dirty with all the recent weather we've had, I glanced over to see if he would acknowledge me, but he was glaring at my dirty vette, (sure I was little embarassed, but it is my daily driver) he yelled out something like "nice weather", I guess he thought I should of drove home and washed it up...it just urked me that some guys can't seem to enjoy driving there vettes around, but think they have to be immaculate all the time. I enjoy driving my car...I didn't even bother to wave, he seemed like a snob

Yeah, I know what you mean. There are people here on this very forum that are so self righteous that they think that they should be able to tell you what you should and shouldn't do in your own car. (Eat, drink or smoke comes to mind).
Heaven forbid that you should drive your car with a speck of dust on it let alone drive it in the rain.
