After seven years of mine mostly sitting in my garage, I decided I was going to start driving it. It hasn't melted yet!

Hope to see you in another one soon.

Maybe you'll be back one of these days in a C6. Just because you sold your car doesn't mean you can't hang out on the forum. Be careful out there. By the way, I went 10-42 for good this past April after 36 years and I'm enjoying every minute.
