Default Previous cars (pics) plus Vette
I started my need for speed with a 2008 S4(very fun car), which led to a 2012 Camaro SS(not as fast, more people liked) to finally my Vette. Some people might not like Daytona sunrise, but get so many compliments on this car, its amazing. Cant wait to add a few mods like tint, and a new grille

Did you like it from the first time you saw it. I fell in love right away, then got scared, then pulled the trigger. Nice car BTW

It’s what made me pull the trigger. Otherwise I’d have stayed with my VW GTI for a bit. I loved the c7 when it came out. But knew I had to have it when I saw DSOM. I’ll get some pics of both cars up tomorrow.

My wife's path to DSOM was Cobra Mustang to STi to C7. She held on to her Viper and '68 Camaro.

This is so awesome. Love seeing these progressions. Notice not many people went from a Prius or something like that, to a corvette lol. Lots of Mustangs, which I wouldnt have expected, out of brand loyalty. Then again, ford doesnt offer anything like the Corvette

The DSOM color is beautiful. It goes very well on the C7.
