Looking for psychological help !
I have heard of buyers remorse but I guess I am suffering from sellers remorse !
Last month I sold my 02 with 35,000 miles and I am having sleepless nights since ! Probably why I am writing this at 1:52 AM.
My son is going for another year at university and well something (or someone) had to give. I guess that was me. So has anybody found ways of dealing with this type of withdrawal short of buying another Vette, which I am going to do but not for some time yet.
Are there any support groups for this, I looked but Corvette Central doesn't sell them ? Tiddlywinks perhaps ?

Possibly when he finishes with his degree you may find you feel better about that than you did about the vette, and . . .you will be able to buy one for a lot less by then

Look at the bright side. At least you had something to sell for what I imagine a good price. I have a whole collection of stuff worth pennies on the dollar from what I spent. I could make you a great deal on a Harley if you miss polishing something.

Been there, done that. After a year and two months of no Vette, I ended up buying another one. Just save what money you can in your Vette fund and when you son gets out of college, take the plunge again.
