Default Wife says F%$K the Goat - We should get a Vette !!

So we got approved with banking to go shopping for new-newer car. We looked at dodges - some are nice. We looked at the GTO and it really just didn't do it for us. I thought about it for well, half my life
- I want a Vette.

So I practice my wife speach for a half an hour and after I do my speach - she says this "A Blue one or a Black one." I swear we have only been married for only 2 years - but when she said that I almost reached for the phone to tell my 24 year old girlfriend at work I can't see her anymore.

I am all over the internet looking nothing here in the Boston area - Looking for a 02' - '04 Electron Blue, a coupe.

Anyone see any laying around at a dealer?

A cool chick like that is the type that would let you post naked pics of her on the internet. So...

Yeah, Auto -Tranny are fine by me. I saw this one - it was just a little more than I wanted to go with. I was hoping closer to $30K.

My wife comes from Costa Rica - she getting better at English all the time. She has only been here 5 years and she likes cars. Only problem with them is she doesnt know the names of them and most of them look like each other she says. The first identifiable car she recoginizes is the Corvette. The other ones she easliy recognizes are Camaro (because we have 1), the Firebird (because we have 1) and the Mustang - she hates those -lol - she really does.

She loves the looks of the 'Vette and you can see her get a tad jellious(sp) at the owner. She was very happy when we beat a C5 merging onto a highway a few months ago. ( He tried but had no idea what he was doing I think. Hope it wasnt anyone of you guys.)

Yeah we are excited but we will not rush into it - meaning we want a Electron Blue. A dealer has a Black one - but thats a nice blue.

We also decided to keep the 00' Formula, after listening to you guys say the dealer would give me **** money for it, we'll keep it.

Thanks for advice.

Yeah Nasty350LT1. I have been doing that for the past 3 days. cars.com, autobytel.com, autotrader.com, ebay and SexATwork.com.

I think I covered the major websites. I called two dealers to tell them to find me one. One in NH , one in MA.

BTW there is a Black on in NY a '02 I think listing for $26K - It looks good.

Thanks for helping everyone - we'll get one.
