After having a person pull a uturn in front of me while riding my motorcycle, I decided to purchase something with four wheels. What has the same rush as a motorcycle? A vette of course. I just purchased my 2008 Jet blue convertible in Grand Rapids, MI on Wednesday and drove it back to my house in Plainfield,IL (burbs of Chicago). It was the best three hour ride I've ever had. Can't wait for more adventures. Love this car.

Thanks for the add. Look forward to learning more about the C6 and having good conversations.
