I will be 60 soon. I have an A4 315. Plan on driving it to the end. Great hwy. cruiser. I do some of my own work and this forum makes things a lot easier when you first get your car.

Mike as you can already tell- the forum brethren are passionate about their vettes! In fact I would be willing to bet that many guys on this forum know more about vettes-than people at GM!
