It's almost '08.....where does owning a C6 (or any Vette) fit on your top ten list of "Life's Best Moments"?

Doesn't make the top 10 - but it might make the top 50.... I love my Vette, but life has had so many wondrous moments that far surpass car ownership. But then, I've had a lot of years to accumulate those moments.

Haven't really thought of it but it definitely ranks high enough.

Sorry, it's a fun car, but it doesn't make the top 10, maybe top 25.

Hard to give it a number in the grand scheme of things, but that statement pretty much sums it up for me and my 31 years so far.

It wouldnt be in my top ten in "Life's best moments", but in 2007's best moments, it would be #1.
