I love fast cars. I've ha 3 Vette's in my life. 1st one was a 65 convertible (wish I still had it😔
396/425 hp metallic green 2 tops
2nd was a much less powerful 96 convertible metallic green w/tan top 2tone tan/black interior
The 1. I have now is a 2013 grand sport coupe 3LT 436 hp
The 1 I have now is by far the best I've ever owned.
Im a retired pilot/computer systems engineer. Can't do 400 knots on the ground so "Mr. Vette's" filling the bill nicely.
Ilive in Central FL.
