Vette(s): had a really nice one. sold it to a good friend. Purchased 2004 custom coupe in Feb. 2009 did not tell anyone here until August 2009. BAD I KNOW.

I got the old girl out today and I finally past or saw three other vettes on the road, ALL WERE RED. One was an early C5 (no wave) and then a later model C3, gasing up, HE WAVED, and then a C4. Most vettes I have seen on any drive around these parts (was thinking I had the only vette in the county.  Great day for a drive.  BTW I BLEW by that C5 clown. Just had the share the joy.......

Good you could get out and stretch your legs in the Vette.    With all that waving I guess you were stretching your arms too.

Too crappy here in NJ to do any Vette'n. Salt and rocks on the road from the last snowings with more snow coming later today.

Vette(s): 1972 elkhart green T-Top, New paint, one previous owner, 370hp/350, hookers/flowMasters. Original PW,PS,PB,AC. All docs.
Even my ride is green with envy ! But mud slides aside, been great to
roll the streets again (here the rains have been the plague). Doing the
Palm Springs run this weekend - need to open her up and clear the
cobwebs. Hope the snow blows over for ya all up there, the road beckens.
BTW, all the C5's snub us C3's here in L.A....The ole one finger wave in
response has become popular around Hollywood.   If you can't wave, at
least smile I say.

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!

There are many fantastic colors on a Vette.  But mine was red, and is going to be a brighter red.  I do need to keep some things correct!    And a red vette is correct!

Okay all colors welcome, we need to help the less privledged.

Ya need to live in the high desert of Nevada. Even thou we are in the foothills of the Sierra Mts., anything other than white bakes ya to death. Our Vette is classic white, our suv is white and our camper is white. As beautiful as Tumarr's black beauty is, you'd roast in it here. By the way, what's up with most C5 owners. They (most) never return the wave. I've gotten to the point that I feel stupid waving to them. I guess they are too good to wave to an older Vette, or don't know what kind of car it is that the driver is waving to them from. The look on some of the faces are like--who are you? I don't know you.
