I cant imagine having to live in a place that could be so bad as to dictate what kind of auto you drive.....Pack up your family and make a run for the hills...........

They are always improving the Corvette so when finally do get one it will be better than the one you could get now.

That sucks. Freakin' losers can't leave other people's s**t alone. But, I know how you feel. Lived in Santa Monica once, one car on the street and was always one ear awake, no good. Better to do it when it can be secure. Good luck.

Hang in there!
My cousin is a schoolteacher for "troubled" kids. When she needed to buy a new car, she asked her kids what cars they liked to steal, and which ones were not worth stealing. Based on their advice, she bought a Saturn!
No worries..

Something we Corvette owners find difficult to do.

I second the motion. I would be concern with wife's safety more than the Vettes.
