Default Hate to go but....
I hate to see my 03 AE vert go but I found a deal that was hard to pass up so I'll be found over on the C6 side now. I found this 07 Pace Car with only 1025 miles on it and at a price that made the move up attractive. If anyone is looking for a perfect AE vert I know where you can find one, at least right now.

Nice looking car, congrats. For whatever reason those C6's sure seem to be growing on me. I guess I'm just a slow learner.

Though I am very partial to my (and your) AE, it is hard to pass up a sweet deal

I like the C6 but not so much the stripes. Congradulations on the new ride.

That's somewhat subjective since I traded my AE. But, I will say that it was very close to book value on both ends. Then the low milage and condition were the big plus.

Beautiful C6 you got and I do like the graphics on it. That '03 AE car you had sure looks good too.

If you had to go and jump up to a C6, you certainly found quite a suitable replacement. Nice, Enjoy !

Your A/E Vert will make someone very happy.

The progressive cycle at work here, excited corvette ownership all around is the end result.
