It's easier to ask for forgiveness, than it is to ask for permissionNever ask, if you can do anything.
If you have to ask, you aint you, you are a yew!
They can't say no, if you don't ask.
I got a few more, if you need them.
That guy paid to much!A stock 05 w/16000 miles sold for the same (32k) in my area.I guess it's all about what one is willing to pay.I still say that these mass produced c5's and c6's are not investments that will make you money ....unless you're planning on sitting on them for 40 years with the hope they will become what the 60's muscle cars are today.And a 2003, stock C5 coup with 25K miles sold for $32K in my area last week.
I used this line. Some men have many women and one car and other men have many cars but one woman. That's when I had five vehicles. The wife never asks about new additions.
Now THAT's what counts!... She got a card, roses and some expensive personalized/embossed stationery for the anniversary... a nice card and an expensive gold necklace,.............AND Friday night a surprise birthday party at the Country Club, professional decoration, open bar, hors de-ouvres, then dinner for everyone and of course, a birthday cake for about 40 family and friends - in our small town, it was a Major social event (and expensive). Best of all it was about fifty times better than her best friend's birthday party last year.
I had always wanted a vette since I was 15 years old. On my 45th birthday I told my wife I was having a mid life crisis and to deal with it I was considering getting a girl friend or a corvette. She said coupe or convertible?Here's my problem. I am an empty nester with well established,self supporting children. My wife and I have the following vehicles - 2004 Corvette, 2007 Cadillac DTS Platinum, 2005 Chevy Tahoe Z-71, 1998 Chevy CK 2500 4x4 pickup (tows boat), and a 2003 Triumph motorcycle. Yeah, 5 vehicles for 2 people, but each one has a necessary (at least for us) special purpose. I want a new 2008 Corvette, but I don't want to sell my 2004 as I have spent about $15,000 on modifications to get it the way I like it. My wife says, one Vette is enough.
The only good arguments I have are 1) I need a roadster (convertible - I really do because then I get to haul around teenage beauty queens in parades, but can't tell the wife that reason), 2) the 2008 looks like it may be a great investment (I have a loaded Z-51 already picked out - how many stock 430 hp Vettes have been or will be made?), 3) the Vette gets great gas milage, 4) I can afford it, 5) I am CFO of a business that owns a Chevy dealership and I can get it at cost, and 6) I have a GM mastercard with considerable credits to use.
What other agruments can I use to get another Vette?
