You have been very lucky with your car. Nothing to apologize about though. Congrats on having a trouble free car.

I'd have to say big deal - ther majority of the corvette owners do not have problems. I admit, I did the cloum lock on my car just because it seemed like a good idea not because I had too.

I think it is true that MOST problems we bring on ourselves. I have never had a problem with my 3 year old C5 Vert other than eating a supercharger belt from letting off the gas too fast at too high of an rpm.

The people that post on this forum are generally enthusiast and can be rather particular, most vette owners just drive them, and are by in large happy as clams!

just my 2 cents

Congrats on your 99's terrific record. I wish I could say that about mine but I love all the same!

BTW - for those who might question the spelling of apologise, you might like to know it is a synonym of apologize and totally valid and appropriate! Just look it up like I had too LOL

There's a rumor that the Bowling Green UAW is looking for you. Seems they forgot a few "standard features" on your Vette.
