Therapy wipe and battery checks today. I could spend hours running my hands along those body lines. Good thing too because this year all 3 get a black polishing.
Just being around them is therapeutic. Driving them is another level.

That garage reminds me of a quote from Sweet Home Alabama. "You can't ride two horses with one ***, sugar bean."

I have a hard enough time getting seat time in two Vettes (our 2001 and our 2011). I couldn't imagine juggling three of them. Although, if I ever got a C8, I would be hard pressed to get rid of the C6, and the C5 belongs to the wife, so that day may come.

Impatiently waiting in Iowa. Pulled it out to add a few parts and get it cleaned up. Won't be long.

The Centennial edition gets the garage, as it should.

Kinda curious how you decide which to drive or is it more of a "grab a fobb and and see which one it belongs to"

That’s funny. I should try that “blind grab in a hat“ method. Lol
They each have 3 different engines, transmissions, and roof types. So it all depends on my mood on the day in question, where I need to go and the weather.
Each one serves an entirely different purpose; a beater (so to speak), a race car, and a luxury cruiser. They’re all keepers.
The grand sport has the lowest miles, and was the most expensive, so yeah, got to keep that one in the garage. I got great car covers for the others I use regularly.

One of the reasons I live in Arizona.......drive year round.......mountains in the summer, and the desert in the fall, "winter" and spring....the best of both worlds.
