Default My first C6 sighting!!!!

You might remember a while ago I posted a thread that said that many people were telling me that there is a White C6 here in my town. Well.....I never saw that white C6, but I saw a Millennium Yellow C6!!!!!!!

Here is how the story goes:

Today I was on my way to my bowling league (I have a 187 average in case you were wondering) in my Camaro, and just as I almost got there, I was in the turning lane to get on the road that the bowling alley is at and the C6 was coming from that street and turning on the road I was on. He turned, then I turned (thank god there was no traffic) I flipped a 180 U turn and took off after it.

He turned into a parking lot and so did I. I parked 2 rows away from him and waited for him to get out and go into the building (he didn't look like a very nice guy) He went back to the car multiple times to check if the car was locked. Once he was gone, I drove my car over and parked right next to the C6.

I must say I was shocked at how good this car looks. I wasn't sure about it not being as wide as the C5 but it looks great.

You people that are C6 owners have got one heck of a car.

So that explains why, no matter how hard I try to park in an empty section of the lot well away from everybody else, when I come back out there is always somebody parked next to me. I always suspected you guys did that on purpose, but now I know that Parking Stalkers are real!!
