I bought my first vette (C5) when i was 19 years old. I bought my second one (C6) at 22 years old. I'm in the process of buying a stingray and i'm 24 now. I plan to keep my C6 for a couple more years so i will be a two vette owner

"According to research by Specialty Equipment Market Association and Experian Automotive, as of 2009, there were approximately 750,000 Corvettes of all model years registered in the United States ... and 82% are between ages of 40 and 69 (median age being 53)"

"According to market research firm Strategic Vision, the average Corvette buyer is 59 years old." -- Strategic Vision 1/2013


Below the proverbial Mendoza line! So I am officially a Younger Corvette owner!

21 when I bought my first Vette. It was a silver 1985 C4, manual 4spd, glass top. It was rough around the edges, but it was a Vette and I enjoyed it for a while. This was 2000 so it was a few years old already.

At 36, I bought a gently used 2004 C5. Black on black, 6 spd manual, glass top.

Turning 38 this year. Hoping to get a C7 before I'm 40. Don't really want to say goodbye to the C5 though.

I was 34 when I bought my first Vette - a used, but well maintained 1999 C5. Last year, I sold the C5 and got into a C7. I added a C3 3 years ago and a C4 last year. I've since sold the C4, but the C7 and C3 are keepers.

At 32 flew out to Les Stanford to drive my '14 C7 back to Chicago. Was never really interested in vettes until the C7, but they stole a soon to be Porsche buyer.
