For all you Corvette haters!!!

Shrek24 · 11-30-2011, 10:31 AM

I hate to be a non conformist to most of your stereotypical views of the vette being a mid life crisis cruiser, but the wife and I have been owning/driving/racing vettes since our early to mid 20's! Too many to count!!

Would love to have a new ZR1, but the wife convinced me to try a BMW this time around. Now it looks like we'll always be a Vette/BMW family for many years to come.

Our daily commuter................335D M Sport

Wife's weekend cruiser................91 ZR-1

My weekend cruiser...(she let's me think it's mine)..............07 Z06

No hate here. That's next on the list!

Will335i · 11-30-2011, 10:36 AM

Is that your garage!?!?!?!

I can't wait to have a garage like that.

Missing that milage right now! Should be back from the body shop this week after repairs from a racoon impact tore up the nose!!

remmib · 11-30-2011, 10:47 AM

That garage looks more like a hangar, so big.

darebornsolja · 11-30-2011, 10:58 AM

OMG~ awesome cars & garage!

Q4P · 11-30-2011, 10:59 AM

Great lineup - no sane man can hate on the Z06!

Will335i · 11-30-2011, 11:01 AM

So sick. Is it bad I am more pumped about the garage than the cars? Beautiful cars too BTW.

E90Mario · 11-30-2011, 11:02 AM

I love vettes! What a garage!

EastCoastE90 · 11-30-2011, 11:22 AM

I dream about owning a garage like that. Quite the setup you have! Beautiful cars as well.

mashimarho · 11-30-2011, 11:22 AM

Over here, Vette's are called "penis extensions."

No better tool to thump BMW's with! (Kidding..don't anyone get their shorts in a knot)

But when we wanted to do some serious thumping...this was our tool of choice!!!! One of the few I regret selling!!!!!

Projekt_BooGie · 11-30-2011, 11:53 AM

you know I won't be that picky.....I love the cars...but I'll just take the garage and would be 200% happy!!! nice!!!

cliverman · 11-30-2011, 11:54 AM

I'm more impressed with the garage! Welcome to the forum fellow NC'er.
