Well, the car turned 10 today, hard to believe its been that many years. I have had a great time with it and decided to show her some love with a full detail. To me she looks better than the day we got her and I still love walking into the garage to see her! Wow, just realized I talk about this car like it is alive, no wonder my wife calls it my girlfriend....

Beautiful Vette and it's probably a lot cheaper to care for then a ten year old child, and it doesn't talk back.
 
Happy Birthday! ;)

Your Corvette looks GREAT. Would you mind if we used it on the website for the Signature Series II page? :)
 
Is that Vette sporting a belt driven blower, with an intercooler?
 
Great looking car! Congrats and Happy Birthday
 
Nice ride! I was never really a big American car fan, but if i go to the dark side and get a little naughty, i'd get a Corvette! Perhaps a used C6 Z06. Not really feeling the new C7
 
I have a 2004 audi with 27,000 miles on it, Looks good, but not as good as that
 
Thanks everybody for the kind replies!

We have two kids, 7 and 6 and yes, less expensive but not by much. Doesn't talk back though so that's big plus!

How many miles are on it? That looks mint!

It's coming up on 5000, it's really a therapy thing, especially during winter when the new mods go on.

Forged LS6, TEA heads, cam and an A&A SC making 8-9 lbs boost. Making 620whp and ready for more upgrades to the diff so I can up the boost without breaking output shafts.

Had a great day today and I really can't say enough about the way the car looks in person. The addition on the Glaze followed by SSII was impressive to see. Great combo for a dark paint next up is our White Diamond Denali.

That sure looks like a Vortech to me:xyxthumbs:

Yup that's a Vortech Strim and at the moment I'm making 620whp on 8-9lbs of boost. At this level its plenty fun and I have a smaller pulley if I want to bump it up.

Stunning car - you have taken good care of it and really babied it - it sure looks like a permanent keeper.
