i dont and probably never will understand why people buy these cars and do not drive them.
McLaren F1 / Ferrari Enzo / Hyundai Santa Fe... more understandable.

I really don't understand, either. I just bought mine 3 months ago and I will drive it when weather turns nice.

You go through life only once...why deny yourself the pleasure of driving a C5Z?
I love my Z06 and my ZR-1. A nice drive in either one can really put a big ol grin on my face!!

I've always wondered about that too. How could you spend $50K on a new car (especially a high-performance one) and just let it sit in the garage? I'd go crazy!

I'm jealous John, I miss my ZR-1 and enjoyed having the choice to drive between the ZR-1 and Z06 but 2 Vettes was too much for me. I bought my 03 Z06 with 3K on it last year and I put another 3,500miles on her over the summer. Hopefully much much more this year.

I wouldn't drive a Hyundai Santa Fe, either.
