Your family comes first, but a Corvette is out there with your name on it, just hope you don't have to wait as I did to replace it. little over 20 years, and then the kids were grown. and off the payroll.

After selling my first vette it wasn't a month before I regretted it. I ended up getting this one about 3 months later. I tried selling this one a few months back but I'm glad now I didn't, I love this car! Any time I think about selling I just take her for a spin, takes care of that real quick!

Good luck getting the next vette! There's just something about them!

I did the same thing with my last Vette (a C3). I hate to say how many years it was til I got my C5. The good news is that I got it and I'm guessing you will too. Just don't forget how great they are and it will come soon.
