Not trying for low mileage. Area roads also limit where I can drive it. A lot of entrances are to steep and pot holes to deep. Had a lowered camaro years ago that I turned round exhaust tips into oval by smashing between road and bumper cover.

Mine didn't exist two months ago. It now has 2400 miles on it. I still don't think I drive it enough. Am I the only one who constantly looks for an even longer way home?

2007 coupe, automatic. This is my sixth Corvette in 14 years. Mine have all been daily drivers. I don't have a back up vehicle. The only time I don't drive it is when the snow is more than 3 inches deep, which is about five times per season. Then I drive my wife to work in her RX330 and then go to work. Reverse in the PM. This is the first brand new Corvette I have owned. All of the others have been one-two years old with less than 10,000 miles. I always appreciated guys like you. You kept the car clean and nice and took the financial hit for me. Thank you.

May I suggest you buy a 2008, red coupe, automatic, tan interior, transparent top, 4lt. Keep it 1-2 years and call me. I will buy it!

DRIVE THE DARN THING, HAVE FUN. WASH IT WHEN YOU HAVE TIME. ENJOY THE JOURNEY.

3400 miles in just under two years - never been washed - see photos - had the top up only once - covered in the garage - and I love to drive it. Not normal but who cares

ralphj again
17,000 miles in 14 months on my 2007.

I bought a 2000 coupe. It was 1.5 years old from the in service date. It had 736 miles. Yes, I got a good deal. The first guy took the financial hit.

When you are able to spend around $50,000 for something, you are entitled to do what you want with it. Don't listen to me or anyone else. Do whatever you want. That is the beauty of life in the USA!
