Well I beleave it's Corvette Convention time here in BG. I leave the house today to see a string of Z06s longer than Babe the Blue Ox's member at a stop light. Vette's all over kinda gets boring after a while, 'specialy when 97% of um are stock :(
Oh well, I can't complain, I suppose the Kiwi's would love to see all these Z06s and C5s in their way :D

I've seen the same thing up in these parts. I agree, it's kinda cool at first, but it gets old fast ("enough with the fuckin' Vettes already!!").

I've only ever seen a couple of Vettes in the metal when I was in the States/Canada 18 months ago. Here it's WRXs. Every second fucking car. And not because of conventions, just because everyone and his Mum has one! There are almost 15,000 on the road in a city with only 4 million poeple (Sydney, Australia). It is rediculous. You can't go 5 mins without seeing one.

Love to swap places....then you can check out all the cool Skylines/WRX's/EVO's and other hot imports we get here instead.
We hardly see any corvettes in NZ. The ones that are here are mostly stored away in sheds and only get taken out to shows

here we get lines of Skylines (the joys of being in a skyline club).
Do like some of the corvettes though, I'm a sucker for 4 round tail lights :mad: :mad: [ ]:mad: :mad:

Id like to go anywhere where I could see some different cars. I only see mostly 80's camaro's 80's rustangs and the odd riced import. Other wise, the cars are very boring here.
