Somehow I thought this was going to be about a vert owner in need of a new roof.

Cool pic, though.

Pick up your newspaper.

That is a neat pic, good looking car. Now...will you come over and hang my lights too? I hate getting up on the roof now-a-days.

Dude! The newspaper in the top right corner - ruins the shot!

Just kidding!!!

Awesome shot of a beautiful C5! I love unique angles of the C5 - it really is a multi-dimensional machine in more ways than one.

Good thinking taking advantage of your position - leave it to a Corvette enthusiast to find a photo op in any situation.
