He has to place his self worth on a car because he is a beta male. He sits at home and tries to make himself win arguments on the internet because in real life he is an insecure beta. He has even mentioned how he needs his car to get attention from girls because he can't do it on his own. All of this points to a scared little boy that has no confidence and must troll web pages to feel better about himself. Poor little guy.

Nah definitely. It makes total sense to love a car.

But when you talk **** about a car, then get mad when people talk **** about the car you like, doesnt make much sense right? Lollzzz

They hate the c8, they think its ugly. I dont like the c6, and I think its ugly by today's standards. Its an old pile.

So winner winner chicken dinner lmaoooo

Some people can't distinguish between facts and talking ****.

A C6 is far from an old pile. From someone who has worked on them they are far from being piles of junk.

Just another sign of pure ignorance.

Yeah you know i had to add the "lollzzz" lol
Your clearly do personally care otherwise you wouldn't be so argumentative, and there's a difference between the way people say what they don't like about a car and you calling a car an old piece of ****. You're just another keyboard warrior who's guaranteed the biggest insecure coward in real life

People like this are called "crowd pleasers"

When the growing sentiment in a thread or section changes so do the attitudes toward whatever topic. Then they backtrack and give soft compliments to try to come off as less of a baby. Best not to react to them because the attention is what they seek. Like a middle child "look at me".

One other thing. I hope and pray you guys are typing on this from some other location than home. Today is a beautiful day in the northeast.



I am at my buddy's shop shootin the **** and admiring some old pieces of junk..




Vert w/a hardtop C4 less than 10k miles on it. Trash.



This pos is 33yo.

The only thing ordinary here are corvettes. The older these cars get the nicer and are much more appreciated. I bet 999 out of 1000 c8 present and future owners disagree with what you thought they want to hear from you. We, the collective appreciate things like these.

Damn, that C4 with a centrifugal Vortech looks very interesting. I'm betting that is really fun to drive and quite strong. The "Eleanor" style Mustang at that shop is to die for.

About 250k or so. But it can't beat a C8 or ZL1 heck probably a 4cyl camaro around the ring! I don't think anyone cares.




Pictures do not do this car justice. It's a work of art. Done properly

Actually eleanor is amazing. Iconic and legendary. That I would LOVE TO OWN. The rest of the stash in those pics, not so much lol. Played out. That's why I wanna upgrade!!!

Hopefully we'll see more pics of c8's in these threads instead of posting the old stuff.

We played with '65-'68 Mustangs for 20 years and had some really nice ones with sig perf upgrades but nothing near this level. There is a whole bunch of time and money in that treasure. My gosh would I love to have that car. Thanks for posting!

Enjoy every chance you have at this age, it does not last long. These memories will be priceless when he is away at college and begins his adult life. Fine looking boy.

Excellent!

BTW, your buddy has the front wheel backwards on that C4. The other front is probably the same.
