Nothing worse than a girl fight. I know because they fight over me all the time.

13,000 units is hardly selling. Better hope that so called college degree you have wasn't in marketing.

was still coveted by the general public 8 years after its introduction is absolutely true. Funny fact in 2013 Sales topped 2011...so I guess it became more relevant as time went on lol. 3.82 gpa and followed that up with 26 years as a technical sales rep for carbide cutting tool company. I’m perdy smart...it’s true

Corvettes will sell regardless, and will sell more when the economy is better than in previous years.

Be careful of bragging about your GPA, especially when it's not a 4.0. Summa *** Laude graduate here.

No sir, the 2010 model did not have 4 catalytic converters, (I have a 2010) that started in 2012?

I stand corrected!

The 2008-9 had the emissions recall and if done went to 4 cat system.

Funny fact #1 you really know nothing about Corvettes.
Funny fact #2 2013 sales did not exceed 2011

And do these charts indicate a coveted car after the first five years of production? which includes a brand new model introduced in 2010.

http://www.corvetteblogger.com/2013/...ey-build-most/


Article read indicates numbers put 2013 ahead of 2011. If my information read is inaccurate so be it. Fact you copied some randome build data does not infact prove that I know “ Nothing about corvettes”. Infact I know enough to enjoy them. Enough not to promote substandard threads commonly found around here. You and randy must be twins, no one person could be this rediculous. Randy, your a 100 years old....sir quietly in the corner and listen rather than spew stupidity and insults. It’s what everyone really wants from you randy.

as for coveted...with respect to true sports cars the corvette was the standard for as long as I can remember for America made cars.

Man, I hope your "job" Disney require good judgement or instincts because I'm 46....and if you're "Purdy smart" that must make me Stephen Hawking. Dimwit.


...and that certainly isn't what everyone wants. As a matter of fact your old lady wants something quite different from me.

there is nothing I could say about your wife which would paint her in any worse light than saying that she is your wife. Talk about low standards.


...and I love that you pulled the race card. It's what every minority does when they are losing an argument. Problem is, I don't care what you say, think, feel or do...including if you think I'm a racist. I voted for Trump....twice.

I bet you can do this some more...and I bet you will. Like I said earlier...I'm controlling you. I'm playing with you like a marionette. You've been great entertainment for everyone here on the forum and everyone at my office earlier. We weren't laughing with you...we were laughing at you.

Why don't you spit my d*ck out and go away. You're cyberstalking me, you gimp. Get off the computer, get out of your moms basement and go drive your "Corvette"...which in your case is probably a Hyundai Sonata.


Hey good news. Now we're both graduates of Windsor. I bought mine on the internet this afternoon. For $5 expedited shipping, it should be here by Saturday.
