Swapped A Corvette For Another

[Norm]

Corvette..................well, not really.

I occasionally breeze by a local auto lot that sells high end cars & trucks to see if anything peaks my interest. Saw a 2004 XLR sitting out front, rarely see them in these parts. Took it for a test drive, looks good, handles and runs well. 44K on the clock, previous owner really kept this in good shape. Made a deal, traded in my '75 Stingray, all happy. Been wanting one for years, the honey's happy too.

Based on the C5 chassis, built in BG alongside the C5...win in my book!

[Stevedore]

Nice; I always liked the looks of them. Don't see them around much.

One word: CLEAN!

I'd drive that. Even if it is red. :yesnod: :thumbs::thumbs:

I would have really liked to have a black one, but.....same color as honey's SRX.:D

[Dan Dlabay]

Always did like those cars. Nice fine.:seasix::cert:

[Brubie]

Great fine and looks great. Don’t see many on the road anymore. I bet it rides a lot better than the 75. 😁

Gorgeous ride Norm!! I remember the first time I saw one up close. We were at a fundraiser in NY and a CF member worked at a dealership and drove one in to be part of the event.
Window sticker read "$100,000" exactly. :lol:
I expected 99,990.63 or something of the sort.

One of the nicest looks Caddy has ever rocked for their late models.

Liked them since day one, then saw James Woods drive a black one on his "Shark" TV series ('06 -'08), that's when I really wanted one. He was driving one similar to the one below.
Only took me 13 years......:D

What were they asking for it? Just wonder what they are going for nowadays. I've always liked them, too. I would buy one of them before any used Corvette.

If I see you passing through Slaughter Beach this weekend I'll wave.
Nice ride:seasix:
The 75 was the blue one with the custom tail ? Right ?
