Oh I don't know. Came pretty close to blowing my wad first time I fully opened up my ZR1. Does that count?
C7 ZR1 now that’s a different story, that’s special! That’s the super model of Corvettes. I might be a little jaded but I think I could learn to love that.
Definitely NOT. I kind of like my C7. It's a great car and does everything I ask of it but it has no soul. It's so good it's like driving an appliance no doubt it will get me where I want to go and home again. For the sheer enjoyment of driving I'll take my '62 C1 anytime.
I've bought a new vehicle every year for the last 6 years. My 2019 Z06 M7 is the only vehicle I've had where I haven't become bored and wanted to get rid of it. I average 12-15 months between cars. If thats not love I'm not sure what is. I've had it 2.5 years now and still adore it and have no plans on selling it.
I also own a C8 and its a good car but I like my C7 more, mostly due to the manual.
Yes...have loved all of my sports cars over the past 45+ years...including a long term C3, C5 and now C7. Love the C7 most of all just because it blows all the others out of the water in every way.

The C7's a definite 👌 keeper. It'd be a kick to own a C8 as well, but not worth selling the M7 convertible C7..🥰
My wife and I have been married for 16 years, and she's a "car person" just like I am, so we've owned something like 30 vehicles between us over the time we've been married. I've had a lot of cool cars. The C7 (2017 M7 Z51) is her favorite (even though she's never driven it) and it is in my top 3.
I'm a huge fan of this car. Love is too strong, but a huge fan for sure.
Sometimes I think it is weird to say you love your Corvette and I never usually mention that word in posts and threads when talking about a possession rather than a person or a animal. However today after having owned Corvettes since 1993 I have to say yes I love my C7 and C5 Corvettes that I currently own. As the ones that I have owned in the past are just possessions that I have owned along with everything else that I had in the past. I plan on keeping these two LOVES of mine for as long as I can drive or they take away my license to drive away from me. IT MIGHT SOUND VERY CORNY TO SAY OR WRITE BUT YES I LOVE MY CORVETTES NOT LIKE FAMILY OR PETS BUT I DO LOVE THEM!
Please.....more pics of that garage in your Avatar!
I didn’t at first because some electrical issues and 8 weeks in the shop. Thank god for a warranty. But since Ive got her back, I’m in love. I absolutely love everyone about the car.

i loved my C5 50th anniversary, 75k when I sold it, never gave me a any problems. I loved my C6 427 vert but it gave me problems. I love and hate my C7 vert, all it does is give me problems. Love to drive it but hate when it has to go back in the shop again and again and again. To much technology to many things can go wrong. Unfortunately my problem child!!
Don’t love my new to me 2017 z51, I like it except for the road noise, I had the floors & wheel wells insulated, & it reduced the noise a lot, next I am going to get rid of the run flat tires, & looking for recommendations.

If you drive your car as a daily driver and/or in temps below 50, there are all-season Michelin options in non-run flat tires.
If you are looking for summer max performance, there are plenty of non-run flat options there too.
I use Tire Rack.com. If you have a Discount Tire next to you, they are a good option as well.
Congrats on the ride and welcome to Corvette Forum
Thanks Sergeant, I only drive it locally, no racing or tracks. I just want to improve the comfort not performance.
My Daughter lives close to you in Monkton.
Women judge men by the car they drive and men judge their car by the women it attracts. That might be part of the love affair with a Corvette. I greatly enjoy driving my Corvettes. Young attractive women have told me they like my C7. I also got compliments from women for my C4. Nice looking women have asked if they could photograph my Corvettes and some wanted to have their photos taken with my Corvettes. Knowing I will be driving a Corvette to work motivates me to get out of bed on time.

I love the overall ownership of two beautiful C7 corvettes. I love looking at them, driving them, working on them and I like to think I appreciate them and how they make me feel behind the wheel. At the end of the day though they're just cars, albeit very cool and exciting cars.
