Thanks! I asked him what was his favorite thing about the vette, and his answer was, "My favorite thing about the vette is that it's a vette!"

Cool pic!
My 2 nephews, 8 and 12 years old, are big into cars. Especially the 8 year old he loves to ride in my Vette or his dads WS6. The other day they were arguing who was going to ride with who.

Here is my brothers WS6 and my Vette
