Rich Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Found a pic I did years ago from a contest Adam's had. I sure miss that car. 69supersport396 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feets31 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 You could probably find it again, but a million bucks would say it won't be in that condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkj4243 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Excellent shot Rich! I know your white one has to be much easier to keep than the black, but you know nothing looks more outstanding than a clean, shiny black car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 It was a beauty, but I just got tired of daily maintenance. I had a saying "black cars are not a job, they're a CAREER!" rkj4243 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWolf Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Should'a kept that black beauty! Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 Yeah, in hindsight, for what I paid for the new one, I could have kept the black one and still bought a C7. But I have the need for power and speed and a plain C7 didn't cut it. I probably should have held out for the C7 Z06, but at that time, it wasn't even on the drawing board. Still, I'm happy with the giddy up I have in the 427. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkj4243 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Rich, you did good with getting the 2013 427 Anniversary Edition Convertible, limited production numbers, and they should retain their value more than a C7 Z06 will at the end of the day. When GM announced the C7 Z06, they thought that maybe a total of 8 to 10 percent of the population would buy them, but that figure is closer to 40 to 45 percent. With the price increase over a base Stingray, the Z06 has become a "cash cow" for GM, and they will build as many as they can to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PT3 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Yeah, in hindsight, for what I paid for the new one, I could have kept the black one and still bought a C7.

Still, I'm happy with the giddy up I have in the 427. You made the right choice! C6 is a better machine than the C5 = fact. And as for that 427...!!!!....... When it comes to American muscle, there's NO replacement for displacement! The vette deserves a 427. That black C5 beauty was nice, no doubt... But your current monster is on a different level. Just my .02 of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
