I recently broke 25K miles on my 2000.
Im thinking of selling it soon since I do not use it much. Probably a cheaper car with an auto trans will take its place.

My 02 Z had 15k on it when I bought it last May 05. Now she has 20600 on her. Like I said though, its only been 11 months & its a weekend & fairweather cruiser. I have 3 other vehicles.

It ain'g gonna happen.
I bought mine with the intent (keyword
intent ) of only driving it on nice, sunny summer days. There won't be any go around for me because this is my first and last Corvette.
