Next time pick her up in your DD.

But seriously at least your Mom can get into the Vette, mine would never be able to bend down low enough.

, I wish my mom was still here as she would be complaining about everything in the vette, but those are priceless moments which should be cherished.

Funny story, but you only get one mom. I'd sell my soul to just have my mother back to take a ride with me. She passed away in 2004 a month after I bought my first (96) vette with her blessings. At least I got her to take a couple of rides with me.

Ask Starbucks for a refund on the coffee.

You could show them your paint for proof.

Probably save ya the $20 ya blew on coffee

If the coffee instant-bonded to the paint that fast just think about what it does to your stomach Starbuck's coffee is way to strong for me. I prefer Dunkin Donuts coffee. Thank god she did not spill it on the inside of the car, your ride home would of really sucked.

If I had my mom back here on earth with me, I would enjoy a day such as yours with her. There are moms, and there are Corvettes. You should always remember which one means more.

No doubt about it, for when she's gone you'd give anything for that coffee spill again!

Same here, she never got to ride in the Vette. Her legs were pretty bad towards the end. I always had to take my wife's car to take her to the doctors.
