Funny GM announced today about the coming electric Corvette. Figured getting a gas burner before their prices increase.
Select-fire.......I heard that very thing on the news yesterday while at work and thought it was pretty funny given your recent purchase and my question. Glad you got a real one and IT IS A BEAUTIFUL CAR................................................but, everytime you attach that pic to a post.........I'm still gonna poke.......is it electric?🤣

I wonder if I could get into one or get out of without help? Low ride and bad left knee or whack my head getting in because it's not T-Top.

Can we all have rides when you get it? I hope so; I haven't been in a Corvette since 1994.
I have a 1996 low mileage Grand Sport. Not driven any C5, C6, C7, or C8 since they were introduced.

That might be why the original owner got rid of this one after only owning it for a year

Awesome ride. I love seeing them out on the highway. This is the closest I will ever get to anything that cool. It is not a Toyota. Lol.

The Miata is the best selling two seater convertible sports car in history. A buddy of mine had one, so much fun. I wish he still had it.

I know most every body on here remembers the 1980's when cars had maybe 150 to 185 HP and most were all front wheel drive and it looked like any performance car / truck was going to be history .

I drove one of these back in the early 80’s. Not a lot of ponies but that Wankel rotary was wicked quick, been a Mazda fan ever since

Thank you, I love seeing folks get what they enjoy. We all worked hard to do it. Regardless the car I love them all. Once judged a large all Ford show a long time ago. When the dust cleared I had some mad car folks. Ist place went to a Ford Pinto. The most original , documented , car there and some were worth tons more that it. Regardless you should have seen the owners face when the best of show trophy was awarded. No friendship notions, or money donated by anyone swayed my decision.

@austin20 it's not a Miata. I have people asking me all the time what it is. No maker marking on the outside other than Abarth.
@select-fire For sure. I didn't know I wanted it until I saw it.

An impulse buyer... I know the feeling. That Scorpion on their logo means something to me..... I am a Scorpio. Drive Safe it is a very nice roadster.

I may be joining you with a similar toy in the near future.
I have my eye on the Bronco Raptor but if you just can’t get one of those, this would fit in the garage!

I was once "car rich" with no indoor garage space to keep them. Now I am "car poor" with a whopping big 4 car garage! 😂
Kind of strange how life's path flows!

You will fill that 4 car up with something...
Three car on the house and 7 to store in the building. This will make them all full. However I am selling a few camaros early spring since they will be in a new camaro book . Wheels up at 7 am
