Best part of Corvette ownership? Just for kicks, tell your favorite thing about being a vette owner. I enjoy having the best bang for the buck sports car in America, the c5 corvette. And looking at it. 
I also enjoy the response from people when you tell them you have a vette, they always want to ask about how fast I have had it up to, how much did I pay for it, have I raced somebody......It's a little bit of celebrity and notoriety that follow the Corvette.

Haha, well I guess some guys need it for a personality extension but Im already a sex-machine (married too) so I don't really think of it like that. I enjoy having a bad-*** car tho and am interested in hearing some more, so keep em coming.
I just love the looks on people's faces when I go flying past them at WOT.
Maybe they think the world is coming to an end.
I had the hot chick before I got my ZO6 and I get laid even more since I got a C5 for her.

Wow, bro nice cars!!! My wife has an 02 Mustang Gt. She loves her Stang and doesn't care about all the obvious reasons to upgrade. With a blower tho, we could make her car a contender. Damn, again I love that pic. I bet your wife drives her *** off, lol.
I like cruising. I don't care who looks at me, or what they think. When I am on that back road on a sunny day, ripping up the streets with the targa top off....it's honestly one of the most relaxing/surreal moments ever. And then I think, I am only 22, what a wonderful life.
I am like most of you already had the woman (fiancee) in the bag before I bought the Vette, so everything now is just icing on the cake.

I agree!
I love the looks on people's faces when I tell them I drive mine everyday, in rush hour, and in winter (including snowy days) and that I also take it down the quarter mile quite often too. A lot of Corvette owners keep these things in the garage and will only bring them out when the atmospheric conditions are 100% perfect.
For me I just have always loved Corvettes, so owning one has just been amazing. One of my favorite things for sure, is when you're driving it and you see another Corvette and you wave to each other. I've always found that to be very cool.
I will always own a Corvette from this point on, I'm already thinking ahead to my next one, which will be a C6. I'm hoping to get one in about 5 or 6 years.

I truely love the way the car looks just washed waxed, targa top off, on a warm Florida evening, just when the sun is going down. Having my fiancee (who drives a S 2000) next to me in the car. thats the best part of owning a vette.
