Screw that. I bought my first 'vette, an 86 C4, in my early thirties. I've had one of every generation. All manuals. Each time I thought I'd never have the next generation model but I've been fortunate and lucky and proven myself wrong three times since that first torch red C4..
You didn't have to wait 'till you're 70 to buy Americas Sports Car, its been around the entire time waiting for you to wake up!
