Yes I look back... and yes I go sit in the car in the garage sometimes. I'll take walks around my office park and sneak a peek. At home I used to park on the street a block or two away, and I would go for a walk just to look at it again.

The problem's not looking back at our beautiful 'Vettes. The problem's looking back at them and then walking into a pole while doing so.

Guilty, lol! I also find myself sitting in restaurants where I can see my Vette or better yet if there are other Vettes there too I'll park by them so I can admire all of them there!

Guess this should be the, "Hi my name is ___________ and I have a problem." thread!

The first week I got mine wife and I were at a sandwich shop. I purposfully sat by a window that gave me full view of the car. After the 5th time in as many minutes that I turned to look at the car my wife informed me I was being a little excessive.... anyone have any idea what she meant by that??

And yeah, I always look back.....
