For me it is knowing that my 06 vert had every option available for that year incuding factory chrome rims!

For me, the HP! Took a friend for a short demo ride today and he remarked about being "pushed back in his seat" during some spirited acceleration on an empty section of highway. I was impressed as well as it was my first time running it through the gears with serious gusto.

In one word? Are you kidding? The style, the engine, the speed, the 4LT interior, it's paid for, and a million other things. I love my 09 coupe. The hose is froze otherwise I would be washing her right now.

Not being in debt ranks right up there but frankly that's not something I think about when I'm behind the wheel. My Vette is my refuge from daily tribulations...an escape machine to whisk me to a better place. Let me work on my car...take a leisurely drive or race on a road course and my mind is clear. I can worry about all that other crap later.

Same here in Chicago. Can't drive all year. But look on the bright side. They have less miles so they are worth more and look better. Okay, I know thats a stretch. But, you have to take what you get and work with it.
