California has had insanely nice weather ever since new years eve. Nothing but blue skies. I am liking this winter (@ 4000ft in the Sierra Nevadas) so far

What a gorgeous photo!

I'm not retiring for another 20 years, but that's definitely in the running for where I want to live. I'll think of that photo as I shovel all of my money into my 401(K).

I live about 20 miles from where that pic was taken. I lived in So Cal for 32 years and then moved to this area. It is breathtaking and I'm very grateful to be here. Of course driving a C6 here makes even more special.

I used to love driving on 17, but now it seems there are cops on that road 24/7 and with a yellow Vette they just assume you're speeding!

Yes, as a matter of fact, on my drive I did see some poor soul get pulled over by the local posse.

The solution is to just find a nice spot to pull over and park. Then get out and stand back and look at your beautifull car with the grandeur of the coast as a backdrop.
