It's a good looking rig. You must be a boomer to buy a vert though. Just saying.

I would even consider downgrading to a GrandSport to not have to borrow money.

We just bought a new house and there's lots of things I would rather spend my money on than interest.

Like kitchen and bedroom furniture. LOL.

You should move to the States. Your cost of living would plummet and nobody would **** with you for being a Canuk ex-pat because you're too menacing.
Win-Win.

I’m looking for a CTS Coupe V, with super low mileage max 5000. In black/ ebony.

Grandsports are great value!!

AND, a few years from now you can drop $10+K on a TVS2650R and be as fast, or faster, than a C7Z.

I feel especially menacing today; pulled a 565 lb deadlift this morning.

Heaviest pull since February 2020.

56 years old and still natty.

Followed that up with a triple at 505 lbs.

Watch your toes when you set it down.
Very impressive, especially the triple,,, you have earned a few LaBatts.

My favorite color for a '67, and maybe the prettiest green for any year Corvette.
