I don't see very many here in Greensboro, NC. Maybe average 4-5 a week. Of course I'm not out driving around all day either. Mostly back and forth to work (about 7 miles) and out to dinner.

fairly common in Houston, during my daily commute I see 4-8 a day on the road. at work, mine is one of 4 on our parking lot. on the weekends the garage queens come out so you see quite a few more.

I see maybe one a week varying between C5 and C6. I have almost always been in my work car or wife's car so I don't even get to wave.

Same here in the Bay Area. Lots of them, so you have to distinguish your vette from the others

I live in Signal Hill (Long Beach) and work in Pasadena. I would guess I see at least 3 - 6+ each day. They are usually C4s, C5s, and C6s. They are so common that I don't really think about them anymore.

Good luck to you sir!

Maybe you have found the answer.

If we gave vettes to the taliban and the suicide bombers, maybe they will discover that life is more fun and worth living, instead of thinking about killing all the time....
