Default Early Christmas from the hubby!
It's mainly mine, but of course he'll be driving it (sometimes) I just have to say ... you all are absolutely right about the Corvette. I was in love the second my butt hit the seat. Felt like it was giving me a warm hug. Oh man ... and driving it for the first time?! Beyond wonderful. So here she is ... 2007 Monterrey Red Metallic 6spd Coupe.

Not the best pic, but it's a start We already have the MGW shifter ready to go, that was his next surprise!

Excellent choice! Congrats!
Monterey Red is the best C6 red, but I am biased, because I own one!

Good looking car! I don't recommend this, but if you were to paint the car pink, your hubby would never drive it and you wouldn't have to share it.

On second thought, it looks perfect now.
