Joliet, while I do agree with you in basic principle, for many of us (at least who are car buffs) our vehicles are and extension of who we are -- and that's why we choose the cars we drive. So, I say to the guy hearing the call of the vette, while most of us who are Crossfire owners want you to stay with the pack, do it for the right reasons. If the vette is calling your name, so be it. I personally love vettes but chose the Crossfire. Why? I like it's looks better, it's more fun to drive, it is more unique than most cars (including most vettes) and I think it will be something that I will enjoy regardless of it's age (or mine).
