Default Ever see your car on the road?

Yesterday I was out cruising and saw a yellow C5 going the other way down the road and thought... Damn that looks sweet, then I remembered that was what I was driving! Hmmm that's what I look like driving around but with a sexier driver.

I love being behind the wheel of my Vette but sometimes it's nice to be on the other side and see it rolling down the road.

Yellow C5s are pretty much the best looking cars on the road, so it would be tough not to think that.

I've driven my C5 while having a friend drive my C4
And then he wanted to race
The result was predictable

I saw a guy driving a green 1970 four door Chevy Impala a few weeks ago. Surprisingly he did NOT have an afro.

A C4 dusts another C5. What's the world coming to?

I have yet to see another V on the road around here. When I had the Z there was only one other one and it was red, much slower than the VY I had.

There are maybe 20 export 2003 Speedway white with white top Corvettes in Canada (218 total produced, the rarest color combination in '03) so the chances of me seeing another one are very rare.

Here's a cool one for ya!

Having supper at Applebees in the big metropolis of Elizabeth City Saturday evening and sitting in a booth nearest the main drag through town. Wife says " I hope I locked the Tahoe cuz there it goes". Sure enough there's a white Tahoe LTZ pulling out of the parking lot. No worries though, it doesn't have tinted windows. Barely 10 minutes later she says " I hope I locked the garage, cuz there goes the Z06" Sure enough there's a LeMans Blue C6Z pulling into the parking lot. As we were leaving, I had to check it out just to make sure. No problem, it didn't have enough dirt on it to be ours!

At the time we thought it was pretty funny that we saw both of them within minutes of each other, then this thread pops up. Makes it even funnier now!

I see my old LPE Z06 on ebay on a regular basis. Its always a scam.

I've even seen pictures I took of my car on TV at the Barret Jackson auction. Asshole told people the pictures were of the car being sold.

The guy that bought my car drove it home and mothballed it.
