Well... my car is a quicksilver 2002 Z06 and I live in North Carolina not very original. I would have used my normal 4CYL?? that was for my last car that I owned (84 Mustang SVO) thought that was a good name but didn't fit for the Vette.

Take a guess...

I'll probably leave it 87 Ragtop even if I get it sold just because I don't feel like changing it again.

Well mine may not be as obvious as it would appear. No I don't really have an "Xtreme" corvette or am I associated with the maker "XtremeVette" that you may see in the Mid America catalogs. I had the name actually since 2000 when my father and brother noticed how meticulous, detail oriented, and extreme I was at perfecting everything when it came down to my 1990 corvette. I have continued on with this tradition and have done some projects to my 2002 C5 corvette that many would agree and describe as being....Xtreme

Seth is my name, but when I was young my family called me "Mo" because I would always want more (mo) of everything but just couldn't annunciate that well, then as I got older my friends heard the family calling me "Mo" and realized I was a junkie for toys and material posessions, therefore Sethmo was spawned. Now three cars, a jet ski, motorcycle, 4-wheeler and boat later, Sethmo's still got it going on, lol

My 13yo Cattle Dogs name is Angus but since he was a pup and would chew stuff as pups do I have called him Munchy. I use his nickname for all my user names whenever I can but I take the Y off because Munch sounds a little manlier than Munchy.

Basically, it explains itself. I have been able to hold on to various Vettes that I have bought.
Result is that I now have a 1980 C2, a pair of 2003 C5s and my newest a 2009 C6.

Thus, I have 3 Generations of Vettes -- And I enjoy them all.

I was an entomologist in my former life; when I retired, my gift to myself was a '98 vert. Hence, 'Entovetter.'
