    So...how many of us take our Vetts out if it is raining?

    Whaddya saving it for? So it looks good when they lower it (with you in it) 6 ft. down? ;) p.s. when the day comes, be sure your executor clay bars it first. :)

    Drop Top C5 info wanted????????

    I have a '98 that I bought with 24,000 miles on it. A year and 8,000 miles later I still love it. However, if you can get the extended warranty because you never know when you might need it. I had the gas gauge (a full tank registering as empty) problem fixed first thing, and a transmission...

    Do you folks name you cars?

    You know, if you were single that could work to your advantage... overheard in a bar..."Hey Baby, wanna see The Pickle? I'll let you take a ride..." ;LOL

    Do you folks name you cars?

    If it's silly, I'm Queen of the Sillies. We not only name our cars, it's a theme! It all started with Babe the Big Blue Ox, the '78 Ford 3/4-ton van. Then there was The Green Machine (an Olds Cutlass), Black Beauty (Olds Alero), and too many others to remember. The best though was when my...

    New Tire for C5s

    Um, yeah - this I gotta see. It's one thing to have snow tires on a front wheel drive Camry, but on a Vette? And if the "subfreezing" gets more than about 4" here, I'm still not going to be able to drive mine! :ohnoes

    Mix & Match Tires?

    Just to clarify - I didn't say they had 0 pressure. The actual pressure was between 20-18 psi. The "low tire pressure" monitor went off - once - but the IDIOTIC dealership when I bought the car said it was just the monitor battery failing (obviously they didn't even check the tire). There was...

    Door rattle

    I had a door rattle in the passenger side - and then found out it was the the door mirror connection. I'm mechanically impaired so my best explanation is that it was the doo-hickey that held the mirror to the door, which had been improperly repaired before the car was mine. The solution was...

    C5 purchase advice

    As in any major purchase, don't underbuy! Go with the best you can get even if it means topping out your budget. For example, last year I got a '98 with under 25,000 miles. Sure it was a little older but it had (HA - note "had") low miles and it's a convertible. I really wanted the...
