2015 Dodge Challenger. Owned it for five years, a world record for length of Car ownership for me.

Bought it after I sold my 2014 C7. Needed a more "sensible" Car at the time, but it had to be a Coupe.

Now I'm back to a Corvette, a Convertible this time around.

This will be my last new Car, my Retirement Car. (famous last words according to my Wife)

My wife said the EXACT same thing to me when I said "This is the last new car I ever buy"

Man, I hope your Wife doesn't know your CF Password.

What kind of Wax do you recommend, "Brazilian" Carnauba?

I traded my 2018 black Camaro 1SS for my 2019 Stingray 2LT. I thought of trading it in in a couple years for a Z06, but I love the look of the c7 and I wouldn't want to daily drive the Z06 (especially if they're actually putting the FPC motor in). If I decided another stingray was best for me then I would trade in the c7 with some cash down. Idk though, I think this Z06 is really going to be something special, especially if the rumors are true and it's going to be NA.

You can easily get an auto loan around 3% right now with excellent credit.

The *** hurt comes from some on this forum since I don’t sing blind praise for a damn $60k Corvette. For that I am sorry if it’s your dream car. They are good cars for the money.....but not great! Peace out! News flash.....most people on here think what they have is the best. Now give me some news I don’t know.
How much are all your other things worth Dr ice? You're so cool 🤗

Yes, I know a few great choices out there. I will decide once I get closer. I ordered a vert so things may change by the time I get it. But I think 3% is about the going rate and worth it for my portfolio.

Nothing... I simply buy outright, whatever I get No mucking with trades since I usually keep or give to someone I care about what I have that might have been traded. So much nicer to not have to have a trade at most wonky dealers.

Selling my boat, but mostly for the floor space. With it gone, I can put in a 4 post lift and should be able to keep all six vehicles indoors



But, my TPW is 3/16 and I’m in Michigan, so I’m not sure the boat will be gone before delivery.

Nope, it’s a Progression 24, but I loved my 21’ Checkmate back in the day.

No trade.

Adding C8 to my 2 existing C6 Z06's. Will keep said C8 for 3 years and race it, and then trade it for a C8 Z06.

I traded my 2010 ZR1 for a 2019 ZR1. I may trade my 2019 ZR1 for a C8 ZR1.
