Do you ever dream about driving your C5 and then the brakes do not work and you have to keep driving in circles and dodging obsticles so you do not scratch the paint or hit parked cars?

I have had nightmares before about my Vette that it was stolen, wrecked, keyed, and a few more that I cant remember right now. All of those were seperate dreams too. I always have to go check my car and make sure none of it really happened after I wake up.

Only when I get stuck in parking in in a crowded lot. Whatever I'm doing, I end up envisioning someone slamming their car door into it (or worse). Then I come to my senses and move it

its the added safety of a MN6, just down shift til the ebrake will pull it down

to answer your question, yes, my dream was worse though, for some reason i was driving it in winter and i started doing 360s down the freeway (on ice) and couldnt stop and my speed magically increased as dream progressed...i woke up before i hit anything....

My worse nigtmare actually came true when I hydroplaned off the interstate into a mud bog. Had to get towed out. Car was a mess - full of mud. Thankfully, the only scratch on it just in front of the rear wheel well was put there by the tow truck.
