Well this was a box of nails....all hit right on the head! Not going to repeat, hope to add: I've participated in 3 HPDE's and 5 AutoX. I learned so much about what a driver's car this is, but the real fun? There isn't a curve on this planet that I'm not plotting to take as fast as I can, or a yellow line that is sacred.

I can honestly say that simply driving it around is really the simple pleasure
Ive owned a few "decent" cars and they are reliable and all that but the vette actually feels like a toy car and is actually fun to drive
Modding it , detailing it, buying/selling/trading parts, is all fun as well

I like when a little kid points, I imagine him or her saying "that's my car" like I used to....

The kids and ladies look and wave. The truck drivers wave. That's cool but sometimes the REALLY old guys who mostly walk wave sometimes. Now that was cool to me 
Other than that I like driving the car. Many times I don't even have to drive fast.......What post was that about PCH & scenery

This one is easy. Best part of owning a Corvette has been the people I have met because I own one!

I really enjoy the Corvette Corrals at Daytona and Sebring down here and meeting like minded people and the camaraderie of the Corvette Racing Team and guest speakers!

I have had a dream of owning a Vette since I was 7.When I had a matchbox car and asked my father what kind of car it was and he answered a Corvette.
So after 50 years I fulfilled a 7 year olds midlife crisis.
I get a kick out of leaving others behind at the light.I don't like speeding but like to get to the speed limit fast.
I do like how the neighbors slow down to get a look at a Speedway White Vert Vette sitting in my driveway.
I have a game I like to play at the dealership.Where I pull up and watch all the sales people come out.
These are just a few of my Small little pleasures of owning a Corvette
