Please tell me I don't need to explain the theme and where I am going with this?

PS, sorry the 17 needs a bath. LOL

Looks like you need a C1, C5, C6, and C8. Nice goal.

HUH? Sorry -- I don't get it. Other than the vette model, if that's it.

If you pronounce UV phonetically, it would be OF. The 66 is a 2nd generation of 8 generations, 2UV8. The 72 is a 3rd generation, 3UV8. My goal is to have all 8, until the next generation come out, then all new plates and a new vette. LOL

That’s a very nice collection! For your sake, I hope the C9 doesn’t come out soon. 😀

This was the extent of my understanding as well. I was getting V8 as in engine type, and wondered what the U indicated.
