Well, I'm blessed...my wife loves riding in the Vette (knew what she was getting into 38yrs ago)...the sounds, pops and gurgles and is also a willing passenger on soome track days.
Admittedly, we only use it a bit rarely, for some summer cruises, and pick our date night dinner spots where it can be parked safely.

As for doggies, my beloved little Zoe was always a willing passenger...and even snuggled in beside my wife's legs on all our cruises. Neither ever complained despite the tight confines, nor complain about some ruckus or WOT.
Sadly, our Zoe passed at 14-1/2 several months ago.


She's an impossible act to follow, but I've never been dogless... Little pup, Roxie, already in training!

Bit of a follow up. Had the vette for a month and the wife came around quick. She's wanted to take it instead of her Expedition around town whenever possible. She likes everything except the shifting 😁

I was shocked as she's taken 1 20 mile ride and said that's all she could handle. Thinks it's too low and rough riding. Of course I abliged. Tons of cars were out. 3 c8s 2 c5s a porsche gt3 and a Ferrari. I was just happy for the wife. Pic of the pup while the wife was looking for a new purse...
nice cat.
