Just curious how is the ownership. Got my annual bonus and a 2015 Subaru. Thinking of trading in to get a l1 vette


Are you late 50's or early 60's? If so, it's perfect for you.

OT Ballers only drive Rolls Royces. Or F250 King Ranch Editions.

Nothing ghetto or crappy about a C8

I was 34 and married when I got my first one.

Corvette sales have been trending younger for awhile now.



This thread brings out the people who nothing about cars.


For kicks I make it a point to take a glance at who's driving a Corvette and it's always an old man.

So you bought a Lambo and couldn't get laid? Is that what you're saying?

The C8 has the median age that of or younger than the 911 buyer depending on 911 model.

On what planet is subaru less ghetto/crappy than your average gm product?

Subies are probably 4th best in quality/fit and finish/reliability amongst the japanese oems.

Not an American car fan but I respect the hell out of the new vettes. They are really impressive design, performance inside and out. Badass

Tell me how many corvette shows you have been to lately? By the ignorance of your post, I would say none.

People that say stupid shite like that are the same ones that drive 2004 Honda accords because a car is just a tool to get from point A to B. There are a ton of cars and coffee meetups in the panhandle, and they aren’t old men. It’s guys my age and younger with money

I’m curious on that posters definition of an actual sports car. My Z51 is 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and is a track monster.


Back in the day some people considered Vettes more of cruising cars

It seems like a silly distinction but that's where the idea probably comes from

No it isn’t, and this is coming from a German car enthusiast and M5 owner. It’s not even close to the same experience
