[QUOTE=hulksdaddy;1558065820]I'm curious. What did your 'Vette replace? This is basically a thread to see what you had before your C6. Was it another sports car? Another 'Vette perhaps? Let us know and post some pics of your previous hot rod(or SUV, Mini-van, whatever it was).

I'll start: 1999 Pontiac Trans Am. Not a WS6, but loaded.

2001 White Pontiac Trans Am, WS6, Ram Air.

I had a '96 BMW 328I (I still miss that car) and the wife had a BMW Z4. Note the ""HAD" and the forum moniker.

A most definitely not-stock Porsche 944 Turbo. I was a "boost-a-holic." Now I'm a "torque-a-holic."

I sold my Dream Car to buy the new C6 Z51. And everytime I go for a ride I am happy. However, I must say that the number of times I got a smile or thubs up in the '67 was about 10 times that of the new car.

Ouch! Not sure I'd have done that! That '67 was the nuts!

I traded both cars in my avatar... 97 C5 and 04 BMW 330 performance package car. No regrets. Bought a lightly modded Passat 1.8t 5 speed for the lovely Chicago winters...

Replaced my 11 years owned '91 red coupe (which I dearly loved), with '05 VR Roadster. I really did love the '91, but the new one, well, it just isn't the same!
