Funny, I never would have seen that until you drew it. However, I can unsee it.

Foosh! Your all white Vette makes my heart go "pitter pat" - I'm not unhappy with my red-mist-tintcoat - but I do have an an affinity for white Vettes that will never leave me --- sigh.

It's all about the color on the C8

White/Gray just doesn't do the car justice

Thanks, Joel. The Forgeline F01s really completed it.

This is kind of interesting. I live near downtown Dallas, have a 2022 Torch Red HTC, and regardless of having the top down or up it's almost like the car is invisible. I never understood it. Only once near where I live, at an LA Fitness, a young kid pulled up next to me and started taking pictures and gave me thumbs up. I talked to him for a minute or so and all he could say was wow, wow, wow. Then once when I was in Irving (north-west of me) at a Taco place, and I saw multiple people through the window walk up to it, take pictures and hang out by it. Near downtown it's like the car is cloaked. Very strange.

I致e found boys 4 to 16 are the most unabashedly enthusiastic demographic of this car. Their little heads turn and lock on to the car even as they are walking away (often being led by the hand by mom).

Many people see your vette and stare at it as long as they know you can稚 see them. As soon as they pull up next to you, they look the other way as if you weren稚 there. Childish behavior.

Was at Buffalo Wild Wings tonight and had a good view of my Vette thru the front window. I swear a dozen people stopped and looked at it. Two of them took pictures. Crazy.
