I am 32 and owned 3.

Got a New 96 LT4 C4 when I was in college.

Got a new C5 in 2003.

And now, my favorite, 06 C6 this January.

Its been fun so far. The worst Vette so far was the C4. It was just made bad with all kinds of rattles.

I'm on my 19th Corvette. The C6 is without a doubt the best one I've had.

I had a 92 c4 roadster. Rattled and conv mechanism started falling apart on me. Sold it years ago. I wonder if the guy still has it.

2001 C5 - Light Pewter Metallic Coupe
2006 C6 - Black Coupe (the best)

Someone told me the other day that I should have a Mercedes or a Lexis and I told them that I'd get one when I got OLD...

I'm 36 and have owned two so far. My first one was a 1984 model I bought when I was 21. The second is my C5 which I bought two years ago. Hopefully I'll have a C6 before I turn 40!

There's one guy that say's he already owned 5.. C6's. At that rate he should have owned about 25 vettes in 10 years or 50 in 20 years!
