Default My Corvette Made a New Friend at Work...

I came out of the office to find a new friend parked next to my C5.

She's a little younger than mine, but they're BFF...

It's hard to see, but that's a Maserati Ghibli parked behind us. It's a very exclusive part of the parking lot. LOL!

I enjoy that shot.

Because the C5 design is not at a style disadvantage against the later design, pretty remarkable since style is such an important sales driver. And , to my eye, is a little cleaner with less angles and no headlights.

The newer design wins points for being smaller, I like a small sports car, but since I have a 12 CD player in the trunk and power steering, that's not really a realistic concern for a yank tank road car .

I guess I could write a poem, but you get the idea.

It was early voting day at the library and this spot looked like it had been saved for me.

Exclusive?!? It looks like they let someone with a 4-door Honda park behind you.
