Corvette interiors of that generation are loving terrible and if I was spending $25k on a car I would probably want something better than a glorified j body

That Corvette has less than 2k miles on its third owner in 14 years. I couldn't imagine driving it less than 2k miles the first summer. What the gently caress is the point of the car you don't drive?

What the gently caress is the point of the car you don't drive? My neighbor bought a 2009 Z06 a few years ago. It's a really nice car and done up tastefully. I saw him drive it twice the first year, and I don't think I saw him drive it a single time last year. He lowers it down on his hoist most weekends (yes, he has a hoist for it in the garage), uncovers it, waxes it. Maybe fires it up and grows "vroom-vroom" in the garage. Covers it back up, raises it on the hoist. I am 99.99% sure that he bought the hoist just so his 7 year old can then go in the garage and he doesn't have to worry about it being scratched.

If a person is that anal about their car, they probably shouldn't have kids, the car, or put the fear of god in them if they touch it.

I just taught my kids from a very early age to be careful around the cars. They are allowed in the garage to get their bikes out and stuff, and I've never had one scratch on any car caused by my kids, and they are rambunctious boys. Doesn't hurt that they both love cars.

My Miata has 2 large and about 3 or 4 small dents on the passenger side. Driver's side is perfect, passenger side garbage. I'm getting a Momo steering wheel for it tomorrow

dreesemonkey posted:It's me, I'm bad with motorcycles I used to just have the Studebaker and my motorcycle. Getting the Studebaker warmed up and ready took about as long as gearing up & warming up the bike, so I alternated pretty often. Then I bought the Crown Victoria and kinda stopped driving the other two much, because it was just so easy to hop in the Ford. Shameful... I think I went for at least 3 months without riding. This is why I'm selling the Crown Vic.

How exactly can you register a car like that? Shouldn't it be illegal for a few more years?

It probably helps that (in the UK at least) it was one of those iconic cars that people grow up wanting, like a E-type or a Skyline.
