Default Sad Day Today



Someone just made an offer on my C5. Now I have to figure out how to sell a car to someone in CO when the bank still holds the title.

I think I might be depressed for a day or two. I really loved that car. Granted my 2010 Grand Sport was just made on Thursday, but still, who doesn't want two Corvettes in their garage?!?!?!

Just get the buyers bank to get in touch with the lein holder. The 2 institutions will work it out. Whatever is left over and above if anything will belong to you and youll probably have a check cut to you or a direct deposit into an account of your choosing.

I would love to own a c6 or even a newer c5 but the one I own at the moment is like part of my family and really would have a hard time letting her go.

I realized this when I was worried for about 4 days that the insurance company would total it.
I am sure your grand sport will feel better than the KIA Rio the insurance company was going to give me to drive till they got mine squared away, I had to pay the $5 extra a day for a Chevy Malibu so I could trade it to my wife for her 86 C4.
Which I drove 1 day before having fuel pump issues.

I can understand getting attached to a car, but considering you're getting a Grand Sport, I'd bet you won't shed too many tears.

Lol, not to many tears! I don't know what I'll do with my time for the next two weeks. I'll probably be on the forum looking for cool options to add onto the car!!!!!

Start your mod list while you're waiting to take delivery. BTW, having two Vettes is a good thing.

WOW! It's hard to feel sorry for a guy getting a brand new GS.

Wait for it...wait for it.

I'm trying...

Wait for it...

Sorry, can't do it.
