"...it's the color of your heartbeat
a rising summer sun
the battle lost or won
the flash to fashion
and the pulse to passion
feels red
inside my head
and truth is often bitter
left unsaid
said red red...!!"

Which Vette belongs to whom?

Is that a Dark Metallic Red C4 or an 40th Anniversary Red '93?

His is the C4. 1993 Ruby Red.

Mine is the C5. Magnetic Red Metallic.

He bought it for me and my personalized plate says "THNXHON."

In a few weeks, we'll be married for 30 years. We were high school sweethearts. He's a wonderful man and treats me like a princess!

Thanks for the compliments. He might be selling his C4, though Maybe you guys can talk him out of it!

I love the Mag Red/Black Top-Interior combo. One of the best during the C5 run IMO!
