Default Poll of C7 Owners, previous Corvette History

Done for Durnberg...
If you have a C7 on order, what is your current Corvette experience?

Damn...the limitation of 100 characters was exceeded...I didn't know about that one. Sorry!


1. First time Corvette owner, you may post separately what car you currently have and may trade/sell to make room for your C7.
2. Current C6 owner.
3. Current C5 owner.
4. Current C4 owner.
5. Earlier model Corvette owner.
6. Previous Corvette owner but do not currently own a Corvette.

2005 C6 Z51 that I bought used. It was a very nice car - but I wanted a C7 and I wanted to go new this time. You only get your first new Corvette once in life and now is the time for me!

I had a new '68 after I lived through Viet Nam, then a new '70 after I survived 18 months on the DMZ in Korea, a new 2010 after the kids got out of my checkbook, and now I have a C7 on order. I've never bought a used car, at least not since the first one in 1960.

2003 50th AE Vert. Not sure I'll sell it, but certainly not before the C7 Vert arrives.

Default My 3rd, 1st new one.

Had a 1971. Got married. The wife didn't want to tie the kids on the roof, so I suffered thru a long series of boring four door barges.
Currently have a Magnetic Red 2004 and a Gold Wing trike.
Trading the C5 for a CRM Z51 and keeping the trike.

This is my first Corvette, I'm not getting rid of my Jag XF when I get the 'vette, but I did sell my Camaro SS for the garage space.

I have owned 19 Corvettes since 1963, when I bought my first , which was a 1958 / 270- 4sp. I currently own a 1967 Red Roadster , 427/435 , which is a NCRS and Bloomington Gold award winner. I also have a
2010 cyber gray ZR1, which I am going to keep. The Torch Red C7 Z51 I have ordered has been given a TPW of 8/19 , I hope that holds true , in order to have the car sometime in Sept.
