Siblings and I bought our parents a Corvette!
Since my first Corvette at age 19, and now on my fourth at age 28, I have been fortunate enough to drive my dream cars at an early age.
My Dad (and Mom) helped me get my first one, and are Corvette enthusiasts just the same. However, they have never had the means to have one of their own.
Because of this, I decided it was time to change that. My wonderful siblings split the cost and we bought their favorite body style in their favorite color. We found them an incredibly clean 1997 black C5 auto with 57k miles and presented it to them this past Father's day weekend.
They were surprised to say the least. Fast forward to 1:10 for the big reveal.
Before the reveal in my garage.
First Drive!
Like father, like son

That was SO nice and thoughtful of you and what a family for all the kids to chip in to help pay for the very very clean Corvette you found, i remember on here when you bought it a couple months back.
Brought laughter and tears to me watching that great video.
Wish the world was like this all over
Thanks for being a good guy and a great kid to your parents!

You and your siblings did a very nice thing for your parents. Hope your Mom and Dad have many years of enjoyment from the car.
