Thanks, as always, Mike. Happy New Year!

My pic this week: Is that Laguna Seca way back in the day? Oh, and I'll have a Coors, please.

Great read as always Mike.

Two things.

1. Red mist will be an all time favorite color for decades. Its just incredible



2. Is it me? Or are late C4s starting to look better and less dated than early C5s? Lol




Hope 2022 is the best year for all of us yet!

Agreed on C4.
C4s have ALWAYS looked better than the C5. C5 same designer as the Chevrolet Cavalier (1995+)



Also, just noticed the Commercial Trucks trailer on the far end of the lot, opposite from the building where the dept. is located today.

My favorite pictures this week were all the Gold Corvettes. I wish GM would add Gold as a Corvette color option. I would trade my new Amplify Orange C8 for a Gold one immediately.

Twas a week after Christmas, and all through Mike Furman's legendary thread, there were a tremendous amount of C2s featured throughout the thread.💗

I will double down on the really nice letter that Larry and Grace sent to Mike to post.

Simply how business is done.

Mike Furman never gets lost in the numbers, nor the fame he gains from merely being himself to his customers.
