![]() First off, no its not mine please read. ;D Well folks we had a little b-day get together for my sister yesterday afternoon and my uncle came over with his new ride. Its a brand new Corvette C-6. WOW is that thing perdy!! :shock: He has owned probably a dozen Corvettes throughout the years but the new flare on the C-6's just kills me...they are so fine. I have always loved Corvettes and I plan on restoring one one day when I can afford it. Anyways I bumed the keys from him to take the wife for a ride. She is a huge Vette fan as well and was thrilled. First of all..I couldnt get the doors open...I kept punching the keyless entry "unlock" button, but I never heard a "click". My wife finally figured it out. You reach around behind the handle and touch the rubber pad...it justs pops open by touch. *8) Ok great...we are off..but then I couldnt get the friggin thing cranked! I looked for all kinds of places to stick the key, but to no avail. I think I even stuck it in my butt once...just to see if that would do anything. It did, but not for the car. *;D I knew my uncle was sitting on the porch laughing at me so I swallowed my pride and walked back over there. He was. *;D He then *came over and showed me...you put your foot on the brake and push a button on the dash. I did and boy when I heard that thing purrin with me behind the wheel, I fell in love. * 8) I looked down at the odometer and it had 1400 miles on it. I told my wife he has had it for 6 months and it only has 1400 miles on it..."yeah"... she said "some people have it rough." *::) The ride: I know those things are fast ok, but I was in no way prepared for just HOW FAST nor HOW SMOOTH. We went around the corner to a deserted area and road. I punched it and held on tight. Note: from a dead standstill this thing DID NOT break traction....it applied every bit of the power to the road. It also done it so smooth I thought we were on one of those rides in Orlando. Well, we were screamin along and before I could really think about it good I looked down at the speedometer and we were doin 130mph. I then slowed us on down and looked over at my wife...she was doin this= *:o *followed quickly by this= *8) I decided before I get us thrown in jail, we better head on back, so we did. But what better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than in a new Corvette with the woman you love by your side. 8)
