I was 21 when I bought this 1965, 43 years ago this week.
I had arrived home from Vietnam 2 weeks earlier.
I paid 2900 cash.
This past April I bought this 1999.
Have had a blast driving it.
Put just over 10,000 miles on it.
It is OK to drive them, right?

I bought my first base 1lt at 37 years old and just bought another 2012 GS 3lt one a year later. Im enjoying the ride. Almost wish I would have looked at one alot sooner.

I may have you all beat - I just turned 70 and bought my first Vette last week! It's a beautiful 2012 3LT Torch Red with the tan interior. cost $44600 and worth every penny.

age
The fever started in 1971. I was 20 yrs. old. Got my first Corvette, a1967, 300 hp, 4-speed, ps, pb, ac coupe. I traded a 1969 Impala for it. Now 41 yrs. and 14 Corvettes later the fever only gets worst. I just bought a 2013 427 conv. There is no cure.....and I love it

age for your first Vette
So am I the oldest (70 1/2) around here to have just bought his very first Corvette?
I figured that I am retired, have always wanted one, have college accounts set up for the Grandkids, encouragement from the spouse AND I felt I deserve it.
whaddya think?
