Default Random C6 Picture

Just wanted to share a picture from today. I always feel dumb taking a picture of my car in public, but sometimes I can't help myself. Anyone else have a random picture of their car they want to share? Feel free to share a picture.

OK, you think you felt silly taking a pic of your car? Last spring we were on a road trip to the Outer Banks of NC in our C6 and my wife had decided beforehand that she wanted to RECREATE a pic we took on our honeymoon, in almost the exact spot, in 1976 in my '67 vert. So here are side by side pics of me, so cool back in the day. Who knew that we would someday have a president in a green '67 vert with aviators on. No commentary please! Hard to see much of a difference, except for the newer car, the gray hair and the tat on the right shoulder. I had thrown away the original hat a few years ago, not ever expecting to recreate this scene, especially in a 2012 C6. I bought this hat on flea bay for almost 4 times what the original cost, because now it's VINTAGE. I guess I am too. Talk about feeling silly on the side of the road.

Back from the beginning of March. It's surprisingly easy to drive this car during the winter up here, with the mild winters there's huge gaps with zero road salt.

I see you are in NJ also.
Yeah, we were real lucky with a super mild winter. Hopefully we can have a repeat with the next one.

The window tint makes difference in the overall appearance of the car, the red/black is stunning i! (Those shopping carts are a bit too close for comfort)

As soon as I read "while I was pulled over in the only Shady spot in the parking lot" I knew you had to be in Texas. I'm in Cypress.

Hard to see much of a difference, except for the newer car, the gray hair and the tat on the right shoulder. I had thrown away the original hat a few years ago, not ever expecting to recreate this scene, especially in a 2012 C6. I bought this hat on flea bay for almost 4 times what the original cost, because now it's VINTAGE. I guess I am too. Talk about feeling silly on the side of the road. OH, and my wife kept telling me to suck in my gut!
