I didn't want to - but I had to!!
So lets start by saying that I have MISSED you guys. Its been almost 2 years since I sold the Vert - and honestly, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't miss having it.
That is - until last weekend . . .
While I know it isn't a Corvette, I really REALLY REALLY love this car.
I hope we can still be friends!!

Ha! While many folks are moving away from heavy, gas guzzlers, you're going in the opposite direction. I'm moving toward lightweight, flingable and efficient vehicles, as premium fuel is now >$4.50/gallon.
Perhaps when I retire, a luxury/sport car may be attractive, but for now, I HATE gas stations.

Don't apologize! Super sweet ride! I bought one just like it a couple months ago. 
Good luck trying to keep it stock. I went in for a little 650 package and it came out with 775 .. And it still has it's original manners ..

While the S4 is a smidge more precise in terms of steering feel, this big fat Cadillac dances like a ballerina!! I was SHOCKED at how smooth, tight, and light the car feels. You can fling it into corners and it sticks like glue, even in heavy rain. Incredibly planted . . .
So I don't even notice the weight! But I do notice the gas bill. Good thing my commute is only 5 miles!

Great loking car you have there!
I have been considering the CTSV coupe - for my next new car after my 2011 Vette.
I am waiting now- to see if they change the 2015 style to be similar to the re-styled sedan.
But - there is a chance GM may not even offer the coupe next year.
We'll see...

Great new car!
Another local forum member was looking at adding another Vette to the garage, but ended up getting a V-coupe instead. Definitely not a bad way to go.
I've been dying to get a V wagon as my next car, but unfortunately circumstances won't allow it.
Enjoy the new ride!
