Default Hey Vega$Vette...

Just wanted to say thanks for making my day! I have always thought your Vette was was of the nicest here in the C5 Forum. A perfect blend of show-n-go. I know many here will agree.
As a result, I have been keeping an eye out for a glimpse of your sweet ride on the streets of Henderson. This morning you cruised by me at the intersection of Anthem Parkway and Reunion. I was on my way to work at Dell Webb Middle School.
Awesome car dude... the hood, CCW's... freakin' amazing. I miss my C5 and seeing yours today didn't help. But it did put a ginormous smile on my face!
Peace.
Stephen
