Another Test Drive Today

This time going in a different direction.

Today - and my hubby - led me to a Corvette.
The Corvette has power. I loved the power & the handling. I had it briefly up to 120 MPH today. Really cool!!!
That was an adrenaline rush. The Corvette is undeniably a fun car.
However, 12O MPH is not in the scheme of everyday life. So how much fun would a Corvette be in normal day to day life???
Is it worth the price tag for someone like me?

Plus there is the really BIG question of where I could put my camera gear.
I was surprised to see so little room inside the 2014 Corvette.

On top of that, this car is NOT intended to be used in rain or snow. That's a very big negative in my books. We get "weather" here.

I've looked at a Porsche, a Maserati, and a Jaguar a Cadillac, an Audi, and a Lexus. Those would have been a replacement for my current sedan. All were nice in different ways.
But all were also problematic in other ways.
Truthfully, I like my current car the best.

BTW, to even consider a Corvette, I'd want red; not blue.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Wow, this corvette is so awesome. I wish that I could get the chance to test drive a corvette someday. I have heard that the repairs and parts can be kind of expensive. Maybe someday I'll be making enough money that I won't have to worry about that anymore, and I could drive whatever car I wanted.http://keenparts.com/

That car is absolutely beautiful. I've never had a car as nice as this, but I've always wanted one. This is the kind of thing that would get me so much attention while driving through the city! Everyone would want to be me! Corvettes are simply incredible. http://www.vetteconnect.com
