Got the Pink

Got the Pink
I purchased my 08 Coupe Claret Red on 10-1-2016. From a dealer and got the pink yesterday! I have coveted owning my own corvette since I could drive. Along time.
For all you that are thinking of getting one, do so. I haven't regretted it. What I think we all go through is "is this a good deal". They only one that matters it to is yourself. Did I pay more than I could have? Probably, but the smile on my face EVERY TIME I just sit in it is Priceless!!
The striking thing I notice is the diverse range of people that admire the car as I go along. When octogenarian woman does the double take it always makes me think of what she did when she was young in a corvette!!
Merry Christmas
Just
Thoughts Thanks for all you do!!

Good for you! That is a great feeling to know it is YOURS...not the banks. One cannot find a better vehicle for the money...period. The conversations she starts, the looks she gets, and the miles of smiles she delivers...enjoy her!

I always think of a pink slip as being a Reduction in Force (layoff) notice.

I could be wrong, but I think in the Beach Boys song the pink slip lyric was referencing street racing where the winner won the "pink slip" to the loser's car, i.e., won the car. Pink slip is also associated with RIF.

Cars are way to expensive now but I saw two guys lose their cars drag racing at OCIR (Orange County International Raceway) in 1976. This wasn't street racing. One guy didn't seem to upset. The other guy was!
