Default Joined the 'Club' Today...

Hi All!

I just joined the 'Club' today.

I picked up my 2003 Anniversary Edition with 39,000 miles.

When I picked up the car at the credit union, a lady came over and told me that it was a really pretty color paint.

Unbelievably, I didn't see another `Vette on the entire 50 mile journey back from the CU, though I did get a nice sunburn on my face.

As I was driving home from work, I happened to pull in behind a maroon C4. When we pulled alongside each other at a traffic signal, we complimented each other on each of our choice of colors.

I asked what year his was and he said, 1993! It was then that I noticed the 40th Anniversary badge on his fender.

Dan

Thanks, everyone.

I knew these were great cars, but it wasn't until I spent some time behind the wheel that I realized that they're fun at any speed.

I saw the title and thought you joined the "other" club. I'm not a member so i can't discuss it.

Welcome to the brotherhood, with a few sisters as well.
