Sold the car last year but I did get him to sign the console cover of my C6. My wife has been his makeup artist for years (whenever he shoots in Las Vegas). I had changed the rotors on my '06 vert and a mysterious vibration was driving me nuts. She got him to call me up a give me a ration of $hit for screwing with the car. He was hilarious. Great guy.

Just like Jay Leno paid to be in the ad. You can bet the owner of that gorgeous Corvette was paid a handsome "appearance fee". It is, actually, a very clever ad that was well written and nicely executed.
