I wanted this exact car, for a long time,
It makes the little kids watch as you drive by, Little boys want one (and
they don't even know why, yet)
It does (or did when I was single) catch the attention of the girls,
It's capable of so much more than I am able to ask of it,
People see it coming and watch as it goes by,
People wave, even non-Vette drivers, view it as America's Sports Car (and
they are always smiling)
When I'm driving out in the country, no one anywhere near by, it gives
me a sense of excitement and kid-like fun; still,
I still enjoy pulling over at scenic places and taking pictures of it,
sometimes I leave home with no other intention than to look for cool
photos of my C5,
I feel like when I leave my driveway, I'm 'inside' the coolest car I'm
going to see, all day!
I enjoy sitting in my garage on a rainy day, just cleaning it....
I think I do love this car; and I don't feel guilty about that at all!!!

Do I love my Vette? Well, I really LIKE the C5, but my attachment, or "love" was the first C-3, the 69 vert.
The C5 is my alternate personality. As a Biotechnology Consultant, I'm a science nerd, a well paid nerd, but still a science nerd. Deep down inside, I dislike that label and need to break away from that image. Driving the Vette or cycling are the two escapes that provide the outlet I need.
