I really like it too but I'm beginning to think this forum will get expensive. This thread reminded me I need to go check something on my C6 so I'll know exactly what to order from CCA. Far TOO MANY good ideas on mod's here.

OMG! I've never even looked at Off Topic until I saw this posting. Checked it out this afternoon. It was great. Now I will really never get anything done around the house.

My off mournings start the same but on clear days I'm on my front porch enjoying the sunrise reading the forum on my smart phone.

I no longer read the printed newspapers either...instead read several different/types of news services on-line, periodically throughout the day. The CF is just one of the required many...!

always learn a lot here...it's just amazing how everyone is willing to share their knowledge (and opinions !... mea culpa, too)

Expressing an honest opinion, even a negative one, is a good thing! It doesn't necessarily mean you're being argumentative. A forum would be virtually worthless without opinions both pro and con. Whether its an Internet forum or a corporate board the 'yes men' don't really help the effort. I want to hear an honest opinion (even if I'm not going to like it).
Refreshing..:cheers

Yes, Retirement is good.....likewise, brew a Blue Mountain or Kona,read the paper, check CF........nice & quiet in the house...wife out the door at 7 AM........then maybe to Village for breakfast and then a nice drive in the Vette for a hour or so and then hit the golf course for a few hits on the range. Then over to see my grandson ( 8 months old ). SWEET !!!!

Mea culpable --- in the morning and then again at night ---- damned shame to be reading the forum instead of driving the car, all it does is cause me to buy something or worry about something --- harmonic balancers, gray wheels, tires, batteries, carbon fiber, plugs in tires, types of gasoline, fobs, seat covers, PALs, HUDS, etc.

Good Morning to all.

Well, I missed this one yesterday morning, but here I am this AM. I don't get on the forum during the working day, but I often take a peak in the early morning before work, or on weekend mornings before the days activities.
