Bad choice of words on my part. But I will tell you I was told by a Corvette marketing guy at Corvette Fest , that GM is not interested in people with my demographic. His words. I told him " I bet you take my check",,, he was just an A hole. All companies have them..

JoesC5

I don't have to be told by a GM guy, anywhere, where they are going with the Corvette. I can see it.

It could bite GM is the ***, very easy.

BlueOx

Where do you get this BS? What quote makes you think this is true or are you just paranoid? I guarantee you that GM isn't trying to exclude or "get away" from any demographic. They are attempting to broaden their target audience, not narrow it.

The car is going to sell like it hasn't in years.people in Toronto are going nuts over it at the auto show there. The cyber grey one is there. Ton fellows loves the car also

BlueOx

Yeah, after all you wouldn't want to see some 35-45 yr old kick yer wrinkly old azz on 'Dega with a C7 with narrower tires!

JoesC5

Selling more then they have in the past four years is nothing to write home about. Can they sell more C7's in the next 4 years then they did in the first 4 years of the C6's existence or the in the full 8 years of the C5 production???? That is very debatable.

JoesC5

Well, this wrinkly old azz has driven on Talledega in his Z06. I don't remember getting handed my azz by some 35-45 yr old driving on any size tires. And this wrinkly old azz also drives his Z06 around the Tail of the dragon, and Hwy 15 in WV and tons of twisties in my local Ozarks, without, not once, bouncing off a guard rail or a rock wall. There is no picture of my Z06 spread all over the Internet, jammed against a rock wall in AZ. Maybe if that driver was 70 years old, as I am, his pretty blue C7 would be on the road today instead of on a roll back headed for the body shop.

BlueOx

Wow really? You've driven on Talledega? We've never heard that before! Oh wait, maybe we have...

JoesC5

You brought up my driving at Talladega is this thread, not me. Jealous, are you?

Have you EVER had your Vette on ANY track? Or do only have enough gas money to cruse around your local Sonic while other Corvette owners(not just me) actually drive their Corvette's on Talladega, Texas Motor Speedway, Daytona(high banked oval and the Rolex 24 course), Atlanta, and plenty of road courses scattered around.

I can show you pics of my car(with me driving) on a track. Why don't you show me where your Corvette spends it's time. I would like to see the inside of your high speed high banked corner garage. No need to hide your extensive collection of bottles/cans of wax when you take the pic as I'm sure you are are plenty proud of your wax collection.

Maybe show me your collection of emails from GM. I bet your garage walls are lined with framed copies.

I better go take a "pill" to clam me down. The excitement of waiting for your photo's is killing me. Then add on the excitement of waiting for the pics of you waxing your C7; more then a 70 year can handle.

BlueOx

I'm pretty comfy joining my fellow 95 percenters that haven't felt the need to track my Corvette. I know it is a critical issue with you tho and I do hope the pills help you.

JoesC5

Then maybe you should change your user name to WalterMitty.

I hope your "waxer's elbow" gets to feeling better. I imagine it's difficult for you to type all those millions of daily CF posts with a bum arm.

BlueOx

Well JT, right back at ya. If I'm a post *****, your doing a fine job of keepin' up. The real difference is that you have evidently done all kinds of research on mine and I could care less about yours.

JoesC5

Don't have to research to see how many posts you make. While I'm driving 160 per hour on the track at Talladega, you are posting 160 per hour on the Corvette Forum.

Hey Joe....don't beat him up so much...remember he is paying for our social security!!

JoesC5

Do you think he'll give us a raise?

JoesC5

I wonder how his brother Ron likes the C7?

jackhall99

For God's sake, quit already.

We all know you've driven Talledega. So what? And many of us have driven the Tail and elsewhere and not wrecked either. I'm not sure why you had to bring the C7 incident into this, or what it even has to do with anything!

But since you did, what if it was Mera, which it wasn't. But you compare your skills to his? And doing 'dega or the Tail isn't the 'ring. What's your best time there in your Z06?

Don't answer, as it does not matter to anyone on here. I've enjoyed your posts for a long time, but the C7 bashing (and it is in a 'cute' underhanded way) from you is stale.
