Default C4 Has a new Home

Well my C4 Vert has a new home in Ottawa.
The new owner came to Mississauga Thursday to buy another C4 Vert.
The Vert he came to buy ended up being a piece of crap.
He picked up the Auto Trader and found my 1990. He called me, came to see my Vert and bought it.
He stayed in town Thursday night waiting for the car to be certified and E tested. By noon yesterday he was on his way to Ottawa with a great old Vette.

We had a blast with the C4. Since July 3rd 2007 we put 28,000 trouble free Kms on the old girl. This included two trips to Carlilse, Myrtle Beach, numerous weekend cruises and she hardley ever missed our spirited Thursday night cruises and Hot Dog Runs.

This C4 was our introduction into the Corvette lifestyle. Without this car we would have never met this awesome group of CFCE friends and Corvette Nuts.

Now we have moved on and up in our Magred C5 Coupe.
This new Vette should bring us years of new adventures and great times.

Great story Mark, congrates on the sale.

Amazing how things pan out eh? I mean, what are the chances of a guy driving to TO to buy a car, find its a POS, then find yours and buy it on the spot...all in October

Did you clue him in to CFCE?

Very nice Mark - I am sure future generations of Corvettes are coming your way as well. A great experience along the way with these cars.

Brought a tear to my eye.

Great story Mark. I remember the first time we met you. It was the 2007 Yonge Street cruise. You and Carol came to the Docks early and waited for the rest of us to show up.

Good times since and more good times to come.

Congratulations Mark & Carol

While I'm sad to see another C4 disappear from the posse, your new ride is a beautiful one.

Enjoy it like you did your Black Beauty

I forgot to give a shout out to "Stingrays" in Mississauga.

Brian and his very capable guys put everything aside Friday morning to Re and Re new lower ball joints, certify then E test the Vert, which helped make this quick sale possible.
Thanks Brian.
