Vette :)
« on: July 05, 2007, 07:49:29 PM »


It's just too much fun ;)



I am gettin:

'Is it a new one?' a lot .. and the look when I tell 'em it's 10 years old is priceless.

..then I add its got over 100k miles on it, and I drive it to work an back.

Then comes the:

'It must have cost a fortune' ..so I tell 'em, nope ..I paid 18.5k for it.
Less than a new Civic.

..and it gets 30mpg ..at 70 ..24mpg to work an back in the city.

Ohhh yaa ..I am hooked on this work of art big time :)

Damn fine car Gray.  Too bad you live so far away, we're having an LSX cruise to Galveston this Sunday.  47 cars from all over Houston going to meet up and head to Galveston for some lunch and some general hotrod comraderie.

Don't forget the exorbitant insurance rates and that every cop zeroes in on the Vette.

Umm.. full coverage cost me the same almost to the dollar that our Durango was costing us.

ANd if you drive with any common sense at all ..you wont get a ticket :)

(now .. that group pix up there .. the bronze vette w/black wheels is supercharged, there were two black C-5 coupes twin turbo.. one with methane injection ..and a black Z06 C6 that mixed it up with them on the way down ..they were doin 160+ I heard .. one of the guys drivin a black C6 is a retired phoenix city cop :)

Group of 20 or so of us cruised down at 110 or so.. was a nice mornin for a cruise :)

-GE (it was across the desert, 4 lane divided most of the way, no one around cept us :)

That bra needs to go though.  Spray some Pam in its place, just make sure you don't get any on the windshield.

What good will Pam do against pebbles and sand?

Both false rumors.  Last time I got pulled over* the cop stopped me to ask me about my mods.  He advised me that he owns a c5 vette and to feel free to use his name as a get out of jail free card when in my town.(I wouldn't do that)





*He heard my car, then followed the sound to where I was.( I had parked at a restaurant.) So not exactly pulled over.

The Pam will keep the bugs from sticking as bad.  Bras make sport cars look ugly as hell.  and you need to make sure sand or tree sap doesn't get under that thing.  The worse thing I ever did to my Z was put a bra on it.  I hate those things with a passion.

Best thing is just buy a small spray bottle of paint that matches the car, some fine grain sandpaper and a good buffer.

I'd rather hear the sound of a fine engine over the sound of a car stereo.
