[QUOTE="Vette1993, post: 194182, member: 4304"] I get that "What did you buy that for" or "You having a midlife crisis?" crap all the time. The true reality is that they are jealous. When you explain that I bought it because I love owning a vehicle like this just for the fun and enjoyment I have with it, not to impress anyone or show off, just 'cause I like messing around with older cars, they seem to understand. When you explain how they could also own a Vette for not a lot of money...you see the eyes gloss over as they imagine themselves behind the wheel of their own special ride. It's just human nature to deride others over something they mistakenly perceive they could never possess, in effect demeaning their own abilities to achieve their own goals. [/QUOTE]
