Welcome

I did not ask my wife what she thought about buying a Vette, but I did ask her what she thought when I drove it home.

New Vette Owner

As a new vette owner (bought a C5 2 mos ago ) I know how you feel.

When I was making up my mind to take the plunge , my wife pushed me over the edge with her comment that she had been hearing about this car for 25 years... please just buy one so she could see what the fuss was about. On the ride home she became a believer.
