And after owning a couple of them now myself, there is just something about owning a corvette. Whenever you pass another corvette on the road you wave. I know it sounds stupid, but it just means something to a lot of their owners. To me it symoblizes my pride, american pride, and just sends a message. Very hard to describe it.
I recently was trying to decide whether to get an infiniti or another corvette...ended up getting another C5. Someday I will get a ZR-1 or at least Z06
But almost, I just wouldnt buy a vette off ebay. Got to see it and learn about the car and owner in person.
