Love it!


So many similarities.   I think it's just common with Corvette "enthusiasts"... Different than other cars.


My Dad has 280 z's, Cadillacs and then Corvettes.  Dad and Stepmother both had for years. (Child of the 70's/80's)

Kids, we'd have to ride in the back, no seat belt laws I guess.


Sexiest car I've still ever seen.  The lines. mmm.  So unique and easily distinguished from anything else. Dream car(Corvette Summer anyone?)


Fast forward, marriage, houses, kids...


Thought I would have by 30, then 40 here I am 50.


After years of struggling, divorced, underwater house, almost let it go a couple of times.


Now have mucho equity,  now or never!


Decided C5 (silly, but, headlights)


Couldn't decide, 50th, LeMans?  Then discovered Speedway white, I like the unusual, I'm unusual, lol.


Told my Dad about my stress and struggle deciding.  He said, "You won't find it, it will find you." 


Wow.

Most cars I liked are sprinkled all over the country, figuring how to see, drive, inspect, trains, hire a driver, ship??? My brain about to explode.


Took another look at green car we had seen online. Something was different with the guages, 300mph?  Research reveals immediately it's a Canada car!

That's unusual!


It was in Pennsylvania (my state) 1.5 hrs away, low enough miles, beautiful condition, easy to look at and drive, I'm in that general area sometimes.


Dealer left it open for me on a Sunday!  So I could at least check it out.


Same as you said!!!

"The feeling I had when I walked-up to the vehicle was different than the other."


Next day, drove and wrote a big check.


Definitely found me.  And I could not be more thrilled!
