Sure seems like there are more and more AW's - I wonder if the 5-6% of production number will move up for 2007 & 2008. No matter, welcome to the good ol' white boys club.

Congrats! Interesting, I've never seen a dealer remove them prior to a sale.

They became standard eyesores on 2006+ GM cars. At least they saved you the trouble.

There is no other color Vette I would own. I can't decide between chrome or black rims now though. Such a nice problem to have

I fell in love again but I didn't cheat on my wife. Though she's in love too so now I predict some battles for the key.
