Soon to be 60 and I love our 2010 Grand Sport Convertible.

We did the factory tour and watched it being built one year ago and we picked it up at the Museum on Jan 22.

64.
Bought my first Corvette when I was 18. Back then it seemed like every guy in town had either a 'vette or a GTO.

Enjoying my '06 vert - well I'll be enjoying it when this friggin snow stops.

...also have a 1400cc bike waiting for the return of Spring.
