Car Forum / Mazda / Mazda Miata / February 2005Took the Plunge!
Well, I bit the bullet and bought the Corvette, picking it up Friday in Atlantic City, NJ (closest I could find one). Magnetic Red (but of course!) with cashmere leather interior. Was offered $4K for my 92 from a private buyer and took it since if I get back into the Miata world, it will be in a 95 M edition (had one with a blower and should never have sold it). Since this is the only newsgroup where I've ever found decorum and civility, can I stay an honorary member or must I resign? Thanks for everyone's input on the process, it helped to "justify" the purchase in my mind. Tom 92 Red (soon gone, never forgotten) 05 Corvette, Magnetic Red Congrats on the new ride Tom. I guess you can stick around here until you come to your senses. I'll look for you on I-95 Friday night.  SignatureKen Lyons '97 Brilliant Black/'90 Classic Red Inside the Beltway [Remove the first two digits to reply] I think I'll take the cowards way out and jump off in Baltimore out to the west and then take 29 down from Warrenton. 60 miles further but in a new car, who cares and that way I won't be sitting on 95! In case you, or any other members are interested, the buyer didn't want the stock spoked wheels, the BBS were enough for her, so I've got a set that have been off the car for the last ten years - $150.00.

"Take me to your leader!" I reply! I hope you have many many miles with a big dumb grin my man! Just watch for "Johnny Law!" Don't let the man take ya down! > I've got a set that > have been off the car for the last ten years - $150.00. Oh man, that's tempting. I bet a ride in a C6 could be part of the package. But I got a garage full of stuff, including a set of steel wheels and 2 kids' furniture arriving here in June when they graduate. I'll have to pass. I'll regret it later, I know.

So when are you going to take the Vette to Lingenfelter and add the goodies? > Well, I bit the bullet and bought the Corvette, picking it up Friday in > Atlantic City, NJ (closest I could find one).

I suppose the next thing you are going to tell me is you sold your jet-ski's and bought a CABIN CRUISER ! ! ! Don't cha know Corvettes are for old men !! Okay, I'll admit it... I've owned a couple myself, and am really *jealous* of anyone with a C6 ! ! ! I'll have to live with my 97 M (and MUCH lower insurance bills ) till I get rich (and old ) like you :) Congrats ! ! ! ! > Well, I bit the bullet and bought the Corvette, picking it up Friday in > Atlantic City, NJ (closest I could find one).

If it had been $2000, I would never have bought it. And, I am an old man, just trying not to act like one. And no, I will never sell the jet skis for a boat. I've had too many boats in the past and every bad thing people say is true. Besides, I'm hoping Kawasaki puts out their 300HP jetski!!!
