It's hard to be without when you've been with for so long. Glad you're backing in the saddle again. It's not a horrible choice either.

Welcome back to the asylum. Now you need to do something with those exhaust tips or put on a new exhaust system (Corsa or Borla).

Welcome back!! One about 30 miles from me. Don't see it often anymore, but when I do, I still have to look at it, even though I know what it is. Guess that means I like it, and it's probably the most identifiable Corvette ever built...

Sans stickers and McDonald's wheels, I'd be more into it.

But clean is clean, so rock it.

Looks like you are living the good life and your cars are amazing! I moved out of the area in 2020 but still hang with the Vette crowd. Either with my C8 or my C3. But I bet you kind of miss doodling on your C5.
