When someone makes a statement like "you know I'm right" it just confirms that person is a complete, unadulterated jerk-off.

There, was that tame enough for you?

I don't get it. C6 is a great car, C7 is a great car. They change and improve over time, but neither is a penalty box.

I am not crying about my C6, I love it (and it loves me). I was just making an observation having seen two C7s on the road, the white one was just awful. Sorry.

There is absolutely nothing for you to be sorry to us about. Actually, we're sorry for you, as it is UNFORTUNATE for you that you are not "impressed" by the C7 like the overwhelming majority of people.

In case you haven't noticed the C7 is a resounding hit.

FORTUNATELY (for us) all of us C7 owners are thoroughly enjoying our "new" cars. You're not, so you should actually be sorry for yourself.

I'm enjoying my LRG one,

and the owner of the white one that pulled up behind me at the gas station, yesterday, seemed to be tickled with his new ride!

My white C7 gets numerous thumbs up. People take pictures with their iPhones as they are driving. Strangers come up to the car when parked just to gawk and take pictures. A stranger on their phone talking to a friend walks into a fast casual restaurant talking about this white car in the parking lot that's unbelievable. A guy driving a mint Mustang Boss gives the car a thumbs up and as he drives past me starts drifting into the other lane as he was checking out my car in his side mirror (my wife and I laughed at that one). And on and on.......

All of these people were likely documenting how awful my car was.....

On sunday...driving back home from NY to NJ, there was a Red C7 on the Verizano or Outer Bridge Crossing driving back into NY. There was a white C3 on its tail during the time.

I would prefer to have a C7 but would consider a C6 also. I'm even considering a ZL1 Camaro at this time. Since I'm going from a Vette to a Camaro...I prefer not to go any lower than a ZL1. Life is too short and looking to move on from my C4.

I just ate warmed up spaghetti. It wasn't very good and tomorrow I'll probably make a tuna sandwich.

And my feet hurt, maybe I'll wear some sandals.
