2005 C6 DSOM coupe...

Since we got it a couple months ago our other two cars are relegated to back-up in case of a blizzard here in the WDC area.

I really can't understand why I would drive anything other than the Corvette unless I was forced to do so.

My C6 is a garage queen....

There....I've said it!

I have, in my small fleet:

A '98 Jeep Cherokee that is my company car used for the daily commute. Free car, free gas, and free maintenance.
A '04 Toyota Sienna that is the family truckster and my wife's primary drive.
A '01 Chevy Lumina that is lovingly hammered through mud, rain, snow, long distances, and anywhere we don't want to drive the Toyota. The Lumina has proved to be bulletproof in its years of service.
