I became a forum member when I had troubles with the AC on a 40th AE; this was the only place I could find any straight answers to my problem. I have since then sold it and purchased an '04 CE Coupe.

I do not own one.....yet. I am building an addition to my garage so I will have a place to put one. I feel fortunate to have found CF and learned so much about vettes and what to look for before I buy, this is a great forum. I hope to purchase one sometime this fall or winter, just shopping for now, but if the right car comes along at the right price I will buy one tomorrow.

I owned a '95, now I share an '04 vert with the bank. They let me drive it though. Maybe one day , after sending them a lot more money, I'll OWN a vette again.

I own 7 C5's, 2 C4's, and 1 C2, plus I own a '55 Bel Aire, a '96 Impala SS, a '70 Buick GSX Stage ! and a 2000 Prowler.They are all 1/18! Does that count?

The Full size model that's in my garage is a shrine that I pay hommage to with expensive concoctions to make it shiney and smell good. I wouldn't dream of driving it!

I think the people that own vettes are more likely to answer the poll than non-owners. I became a member when I became able to buy. I planned to purchase from a member, but found "the one" for me elsewhere.

I became a FOURM member 5 months after I purchased my 1st VETTE (a 91 Red Coupe). I traded my 91 for my 98 coupe.I have compiled a wealth of knowledge from the FOURM members about my C5 that has helped me keep from taking my Vette to other sources to fix any issues that I could take care of myself.THANKS to all those who have helped me grow more knowledgable about my VETTE ,THE ONLY TRUE AMERICAN SPORTS CAR !!!!!

The wife and I have a 2000 Red/Red 6spd FRC and a '01 QS Z06.
We have always had one or two vettes in the garage for the last 28 years. These two have been the best of the lot or maybe I'm just getting old and perfer comfort and amenities now.

I didn't read through all the replies, but you should have added another category: Those Who Once Owned a Vette but for Whatever Reason No Longer Have One.

That'd be me.

I do not own nor will i pretend that i do...My soon-to-be bf (again) just traded in his '03 C5Z, '06 Pick-em-up truck & some $$$ for an '07 C6Z. (see pic)
He is pc illiterate...so i try to get answers to his questions via the CF...I love this place! Information is never ending Everyone on here for the most part, are very polite & helpful.

Now that he has the C6Z I'll be on here looking for mod ideas, tips, & cool gadgets (that you guys have shared with me in the past) and help him start modding this one

I probably never will own one...I'd rather enjoy riding in his. 4 of his friends also "own" and we all go on road trips together in the Vettes!
I prefer "lifted" 4x4's for my ride (see sig)
