I ran across two people recently that made me do a double take.
The first was a woman in the Walmart parking lot (yes, Walmart). As she walked by she asks if my car was a GS model. "Um no", I replied. Then she says "well even though it's no a GS model, it still looks good".
The second one was last week at a hockey game. The guy two seats from me had a Corvette coat on, the one that says "Corvette" in the front and has a big "C5 logo" on the back. While we were waiting for the game to start, I lean over and said "I have two C5's" and his response was "What's a C5?" I replied "a Corvette made between 1997 and 2004". That was the end of our conversation.
Save the wave.

Really nice day today so I thought I would take the Vette and get it all cleaned up.
When I pull in there is another C5 there getting detailed and I asked the guy if that was his C5 and his reply was "It isn't a C5" and I looked again and it sure was a C5 so I asked well what is it then and his reply was "It's a Corvette" So I told his a C5 was the 5th gen of the car and he told me that he didn't care what is was other than a Corvette, He was very unsociable, After he left my detail guy told me that he don't know much about cars except how to start them...
True story...

Did any of you guys see "Passtime" Friday night? A guy said his c-5 Roadster was a "Z06" and had around 450 H.P. at the rear wheels.
He then proceded to put down a blistrering 13.30 E.T.!
