Wife has been wanting us to get a vette for a while. We’re at a point where I thought it would be no big deal based on my mid 2000s idea of what a vette costs, so I go and “build and price” exactly what I want.
$150k holy fuck |

Damn.. I think a C5 is around $70k. Pretty cool car. If I had $150k to throw at an automobile I wouldn't be looking at a 'vette though.

Talk her into a Miata, they're a Hell of a lot of fun. Even more so if she's willing to learn to drive a manual.

He called on us one day in a bright yellow vette that looked like it was fresh off the track. He peeled out of the parking lot and smoked the tires for a quarter mile. A year later i was holding his payment for failure to perform. He got caught cheating and lost it all. All the best! Enjoy! |

A guy I know ordered one. Even after $25k down, it's still $1200/month.

No one’s going to tell OP a vette doesn’t have to cost $150k?

It's why they couldn't afford their current house if they had to buy it today. VetteLife

The guy that does the fleet maintenance for the company I work for (in our area) had one. When he decided to get rid of it his dad wanted to buy it from him. His dad got in and I think drove it a little and then couldn’t get out of it because it was so low and uncomfortable (to him).
I’ve never even sat in a Vette except for a ‘57 one of my girlfriends dad owned back in the 90’s. |

With the wide array of readily accessible ED medications on the market, why do old men still want vettes?

Go hang out at the basketball courts at Orange Mound Park and you’ll see youngsters in corvettes doing donuts.

I'm old and the last one I rode in was like sitting in a reclining yard chair.
Fall in and crawl out. Must be limber boomers buying them. |

Nothing is a faster panty dropper than white new balance and a red corvette.

A 50+ yr old man's Corvette or Harley is parallel to a 50+ yr old woman getting new tits.

I intentionally didn't buy a C8 because of the stereotype. I bought a BMW instead.
