Default Annoying Corvette

I didn't get the pleasure of seeing this car but people were really bashing him on other forums. If someone knows him then please help him out because he is giving corvette owners a bad wrap. I copied this from one of the forums.

If this car belongs to you, I think you won the award to day for most annoying car at the Cars & Coffee event. Cruising around the parking lot and revving your engine up over and over...really? Peeling out in the parking lot too?

A few of my family members are in the Air Force, they were also disappointed with your actions.

lol I remember seeing this car, yeah it was driving around over and over reving his engine. IMHO I didn't mind, his car did sound really nice it had a deep rumble to it. But after a while it could have just parked instead of driving around constantly

Well, I'm glad I did not bring my lowly 82 there. It would have been looked down on, I would think.

You would have been fine. I have a 87 c4 and if it would have been running I would have taken it. There were a lot of other cars but it seems people can only talk about the high end cars. No disrespect to the high end cars, they were really nice but there was a wide variety of cars there. This was my first and I will make the next one for sure hopefully in my c4.

that guy really was irritating - and he just bought the car - former owner is a great guy and was there - must have been embarrassed (he has a new silver C6Z06 to make him feel better)

I was checking out the underside of a Porsche and he drove by and rev'd. It took all my strength to not get up and punch him in the face.

Very very mature of him. These are not the type of people we need at the show. Do everyone a favor and stay home.

Otherwise awesome turn out. Have you guys tried those Crave Cupcakes? We get them at the office, I love them haha.

I wish my vette was up and running, I had to take the ol' M3 instead.

I want a black DB9 so bad.
