Now don't laugh!!!
One of my friends started calling her Bella when we were trying to keep it secret that I had bought one, so for now she is Bella and the bell of the ball. NRB, blue top and brownstone interior. I am open to suggestions.

Sure do. Not only that but I have heard the Corvette talking to the Camaro.

The Corvettes name is Ray and the Camaro is Cinnamon

Anyone who says that they never talked to their Vet obviously has never worked on their Vet.

Try changing an OptiSpark on a C4 without “Communicating” with your “Baby”.

Impossible!!!!!!!!

I think I have the only C7 in Lehigh that i have seen so far. There is two blue and one other grey in Fort Myers and a few more in Naples, (also blue).

But all things considered im taking into account about a 50 mile radius so thats not very many..

Lol Guilty. I said some very not nice things to my C7 when I changed the plug wires a few months ago.

Thanks!

Not too many of those out there, but probably the most common of the LRG combos (due to the P.E.s).

I have named most of the cars I've owned: a BMW named Wolfgang, a Porsche named Ursula, my wife's Lexus is named Hedley (too much Blazing saddles), and my C7 is named Athena, goddess of speed!

I'll go first..

I've got Cyber Grey which I am in the process of blacking out. Her name: Elvira

named after the queen of darkness herself! I felt it was fitting :-)

I just don't see a guy saying, "well, it's time I and (insert name here) get going "
I don't have to, they usually speak up first and ask "how is the Blue Demon running?"
