My Vettes arent a financial investment...I would have bought C1s or C2s if that were the case........Theyre a "quality of life" investment for me......I have no desire to sell any of them....and that would be the only time I would lose money on them..

We have three, Mine is an 02 Vert. My wife's is a 99 coupe and our 16 year old daughter has a 76 we are rebuilding as her senior project... Once that is done we will be selling the 76, the daughter will take the wife's 99 and the wife will get another C5, year yet to be determined....
