I never thought of the vette's as a mid-life crisis deal.

I always thought it was the time when the kids had grown up & moved out, the other cars & house finally got paid off, you retired & had enough time & money to do something for yourself ~ like have fun in a fast car.

A vette?

Nah....build something unique....now how you'll get it road-worthy (no bumpers, non-DOT glass, etc)...well, who knows!

nice cobra, but that vacuum sweeper you laid on the hood is going to fall off in the first turn.

I know what you mean GE.  I had a 2000 C5 corvette.  It was torch red, and I had wonderful time drivin it around.  I had gotten it up to 140mph on a local toll road and decided that it was fast enough for fear of hitting something on the road surface.  My only problem was at 6'2", it was sort of a pain in the rear to get in and out of.  I eventually sold the car for that issue alone.  My real desire was to have a 67 vette but the things have gotten a little pricey and I've put the money elsewhere.  I am having fun with my 2005 mustang gt convertible.  The 300 HP pushes the little car around pretty well.  Enjoy yourself.
