"Everyone has one"
Does this **** anyone else off?
You get those haters that say how common corvettes are. and everyone has one.
I dont necessarily think they are common, but most you see (around here at least) are just stock and all look the same.

Well, if "everyone" had one, the world, and especially the streets, would be a better place!! Especially if "everyone" drove them like they are supposed to......
No more snail line starts from stop lights
No more clogging up the fast lane on the freeway
More eye candy everywhere
Sounds okay to me

Nope doesn't bother me in the least. If I'm looking I'll usually see 2-3 a day when in my truck. When I'm in the vette I see more and they seem to find me in traffic as well. Must be those rare earth magnets I put in the body panels.

Doesn't bother me at all. I'm probably immune because I get lectured every time I ride my motorcycle on how dangerous they are and everyone has a friend who knows someone who was killed while riding.
Speaking of encounters on a bike, the funniest one was when someone followed me through the parking lot while it was raining to tell me "Don't get wet on your way home." I responded that they were already wetter than me. They asked how could that be and I said; I'm currently wearing waterproof gear; How about you?"

I really hate the people that say that. they also say everyone has one thats why they dont want a corvette. they just dont understand how nice it really is, and that why lots of people own them 
. but whatever they want, more room on the roads for us with them not buying one.
by the way I thought i was the only one who thought people said that. glad to know there are others out there

Doesn't bother me at all. Sounds like someone who is jealous of those that do own a Corvette. Besides, if everyone owned one, it would just show they have good taste.

I can say without a shadow of a doubt that no one has ever said that to me in Lincolnshire, England.
