I LOVE it!
I have always wanted a vette, since I was 6 at least. My dad has a '73, big block 4spd, (bored 454). I was SO dissapointed when he let me drive it, because with the seat ALL the way forward I could not push the clutch all the way down, and bairly could see over the hood (umm, I am kinda short). I was crushed and kinda gave up the idea of being able to have a vette of my own.
Well, my boyfriend (has a '71 and is going to bring home a c5 tomorrow) brought a '02 passed the house on a test drive and insisted I drive it even though it was an auto (not my preference).
Well the rest is history, I am now officially a vette owner.
I am banking on that my dad does not visit here, because I want it to be a surprise when they come visit me in March, much like they did to me when they unveiled the Buick Park Avenue!

Of course, we do require pictures (of the car), and an understanding of the mods contemplated
