To the OP - have you ever heard of capital letters? They're often used at the beginning of sentences and for the first letters of proper nouns such as "I", "Aston Martin", "Porsche", etc. It's also quite common to end a sentence with a perios, leave 2 spaces, and then start the next sentence.

Well that I understand you'll have a full year of Vette driving compared to the Northeast, then I guess the question is do you prefer the drop top to having a Z and all the power. I guess its the drop top, enjoy the Fl rays. It seems from the other posts money isnt much of an object so you could always add a S/C and be as fast as a Z again.

Dear mpuzach,

Thanks for the grammar lesson.

However, is this really germain to JerseyZ's questions and subsequent comments?

Look, I believe that he's a well meaning young gentlemen who is used to texting, in which genre, punctuation and capitalization aren't emphasized / important. This is the current fashion.

I.E., in the Holiday and Common Sense Spirit...give the young gentleman a break and be a tad more tolerant!!

Just my $0.02

Regards,

Duffy

The heat isn't going to make a difference. Leather gets hot no matter what colour it is. My Vette and my Avalanche both have ebony interiors. My Jaguar is an oatmeal colour. If any of them are parked in the sun for any length of time, they all get equally hot.

I, personally, would not give up the Z06 for a standard 911. I might for a 911TT cabrio. The bottom line is it's your money and your happiness and what the rest of us think is irrelevant.
