That is the simplest answer I can give without going into more detail on each car’s “character”. But there was a reason why I hung on to my C5.

Thanks! And yes I am on Viper Alley, though I have not posted there in a number of months. Compared to the VCA forum the guys on the Alley are a riot!

Nah, your car is way cooler. Good minds think alike. It would be cool to get some photos together sometime.

Maybe we should come up with a special edition we could call the black with black stripes version.

Awesome stable - gorgeous vehicles! Each is my favorite of it's kind.

And, I agree - Hummers go great with Vettes.

Jeez Louise....I just can't even imagine such a stable. Good thing you live in SoCal....'cause up here you would spend your ENTIRE lifetime keeping them as clean and detailed as they look!! pisses me off

Extreme collection man.....good for you. ....dammit

LOL!!!! This was good. How do you like the R888's? I'm thinking of using them as a street/road course tire after my Invo's wear out......If I havent traded the Vette for a Viper by then.
