I am going to miss my Roadster with a stick next year at the Dragon.


Met a customer last week for some consulting work and was told to stay at her house in NC. So my wife and I did. She drives a Mercedes 600s Beautiful car, but we found a 2014 Corvette in her garage. IT HAS A STICK SHIFT!


I had no idea one even existed. Better yet,,,She doesn't know how to drive it.


SOoooooooooooooooooo. We are invited back in January for a week to show her.


Maybe I can trade her for an SRT coupe.
