:hysterical:..no chance of that. I'm leaving her alone in that respect. Going to paint the calipers, but not pink. White or red...not sure yet.

MonteC 09-25-2013 12:54 PM

Aquamarine.

It was on the car when I bought it. Sounds pretty good IMO.

Thanks! When searching for white one's (no other color would do), I read somewhere that white is the least desirable color of vette owners. It wasn't easy finding one and we had to drive 650 miles round trip to get this one. So worth it!!!

Now to figure out what I want on the tag. My choices are HER C6, HER07C6 or HERVETT. All are available according to the DMV lady I talked to yesterday. I also thought SLOWHYT would be a good one, but didn't check availability on that one.

the only thing that would make it better is if it had red interior

I found one with red interior, but it had been wrecked and didn't want any part of that. It was pretty though.

How much were they asking? How bad was it? Frame/structure or just some panels?

The salesman said they did a good job fixing her, but they wouldn't come off of that price and we thought that was a little much for an '06 that had been wrecked. I got my '07 with fewer miles and never wrecked for less $.

Nevermind, for some reason I thought it was a C5 and manual...carry on, nothing to see here. lol

lol...sorry to burst your bubble.

And I think it's amazing how friendly other Vette owners are. Everyone I've come across has spoken and/or waved. Pretty cool!

GreebeanZ28 09-26-2013 11:24 AM

If youve got a z06 or zr1 the base model owners dont wave lol.

There is a "Corvette Wave." Make sure to wave at them, except to the C4s. No one likes them. lol

RoadconeTuning 09-26-2013 01:44 PM

C6>C1>C2>C5>C4>C3

BIRDMAN 09-26-2013 01:48 PM

You swapped C3 and C4 sir. Chrome bumper Stingrays are > C4. Not that you can really compare C1/2/3s to C4/5/6/7..

lol...I heard tell of such a thing and had found this prior to my purchase so I would be ready when it happened.

That article applies to boat and Harley owners as well.

Yeah man, I'm surprised there's no civic, excursion, accord, or Monte Carlo wave!
