I am 62. Bought my first Vette in Dec. 97 after my youngest son was married and gone from the house. I have owned 63 automobiles in my lifetime but only two Vettes. A lot of these young guys on here will fall in love, get married, have kids and have to leave the vettes behind for a few years. I know a lot of guys my age who that story applies to. Enjoy, regardless of age, there is no life like Corvette Ownership/

Bought my first vette at age 55 when I retired. Two years later, I'm really enjoying retirement as a vette owner!
