I'm considering fulfilling a long time want-a 2001-2004 Corvette. Except for the new style (C7) that are way over my budget, the 2001-2004 is my favorite body style. Although my wife has known this has been in the back of my head, it's recently moved to the forefront. (Kids are in college, but money is already set aside for that with 529s) I think I have as much of an endorsement as I'm going to get from her. I have another birthday coming up, and as a early 50 something I think it's time for the proverbial old man toy.
My justification is that I don't really have a car-I have a company car-so this would be "my" car, mostly for weekends and leisure driving. I go back and forth between a convertible and targa top. (I had a BMW m roadster a while ago so I know the +/- of a convertible.) 6 speed is a must.
This would be a cash purchase.
Discussing this with my wife anymore isn't helping. I need some testosterone perspective.
Fire away.
