Another "C5 has still got it" thread..
Leaving work yesterday, I decided to stop by the grocery store to get a 12 pack of Oktoberfest. I look in my side view mirror and notice a black C6 hauling @ss next to me. He yelled "What's up!!!" and gave me a thumbs up. I reciprocated with a "Nice ride!" and we parted.
Point of this thread...
The C6 driver rushed up to the C5 driver.
(that's right)
j/k
To be honest, I think he may have just purchased it. I have only seen 2 C5's, including mine, and this guys C6 in my area. I guess he was happy to see another late model Vette. Anyway, it brightened my day!

I don't drove my '01 convertible to my office often. But the other day I did. I happened to look out my window into the parking lot, and you would have thought my Vette was a rock star. There were 5 people just walking around it. Not touching, just looking. I felt great.
Many, if not all, will disagree with me...Corvette lights should be hidden when not in use. I know, I know, the C-6. My son and I got home last night and waited for the lights to close. It's just cool.

A wave returned means a lot in my book no matter what generation unfortunately you sometimes get the people that won't return it because in their narrow view-point of having the latest and greatest
waving to older 'Vettes or waving at all is beneath them.That's their loss IMO.
Have a good weekend and here's a wave from MO
