View Full Version : God Loves me!
God or someone up there loves me. Ok i had a really shitty birthday so i was down today. When my mom says lets go driving, its around 11, and we start driving around. At around 1145 we are in the industrial center of our city. Its really dark, but some how i see these bright xenons headed towards us. I start to stare at them and realize and say to myself OO SHIT! Car passes us and i tell my mom to bust a U, for i think i just saw a C6 Corvette. These cars arent out yet, so this is the local dealer owner just playing with it. We loose it and i get pissy again, and we are driving around again by the local shopping centers. At around 1150, out of nowhere hes coming the opposite way again, the c6 corvette. I tell my mom to take another u and she does and the damn thing dissapears again, so i try to think of ways to head it off. We do the route i though, and next thing i know coming the opposite way again, we make another u, and finally follow him out, and he makes another U, i think he knew we were following him. Anyways he makes another U and takes off again. We try and follow him but we get caught at a light. He takes off again, and then i realize he probably went to the dealership, so we head there, but the damn thing is gone. But long story short, saw a C6 Corvette, and chased him down with my mom and now im in a good mood. Tommarow im gonna get my Digital Camera, so ill go Landsharking for that C6 Corvette again. :D

happy birthday man. it's always a nice thing to see a really cool car, but on ur bday it must be so much better. nice way to end the day.
don;t forget to post pics if u ever do find it!
I will find this bastard. He was having some fun i bet. Must be nice to own a dealership around here. You can tell the C6 from the C5 from far away, the bright xenons, and even the butt of the car is very recogizable.

I think the C6 is really cool, specially the display which is built into the window, I would like to see that in other cars, I'm sure parts dont drop off it, maybe the quality aint at the top of the scale, but the price is I think.
nice sighting,i thoguth the car was for sale now?

What about Bauer Millett :wink:
:arrow: http://www.bauer-millett.com/
thats the one im on about,i was thinkin bout takin a trip there
also the day before i was driving along, and 10 Ferraris passed the opposite way. INCLUDING A DINO!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: The Convoy included 2 355 Spiders, 1 Teterosa, 1 512, 1 360 Spider, The Dino, a 575M, 2 355 Berlinettes or GTS. They were going by at 100, so i had to look at the wheels and sides of the cars to see. The Dino looked like a older 911 when i saw it from the distance.

The C5 had HUD (Heads Up Display) since 2000, and the Z06 since 2002. ;)
Blah - Nice sighting - although C6's have been on the road for at least a month now.

perhaps it depends on the dealer. in Michigan, the Corvette is a huge seller, so a lot of local dealerships have had them... my first sighting/pictures of a non-mfr. plate were about almost 2 weeks before woodward... about aug. 12th.
some areas havent sold as many, so they are going to be among the last to get the vette.
damn fun car to follow, a few lost me as thier tail already :shock: 8)

I've seen/taken pictures of a C6 more than three months ago (see my trip to the USA topic). Still, I guess it's a pretty rare site for now.
i have only seen 1? Are they not selling well or is their just a back up at the factorys?

your sighting was a test mule though now they are available to the public I've seen a few here but never bothered to take a pic although I plan to go test drive one very soon, (We have the one of the largest Chevrolet Dealers in the Country here)

it is still quite rare, much like the Rx8 was when it first arroived. nice to see uve spotted one, and of course in the places where exotics pop up the most, these are the places ull see the C6 the most and soonest. soon it will be just another vette, though the best looking one IMO. im still waiting for my first 8)
Am I on a role or What? Ok so me and my friends get kicked out of our cinema class for nothing, we werent talking when he kicked us out. But i guess god wanted me to go look at cars. We end up at the Merc Dealer in Van Nuys, and guess whats fucking there. a Silver McLaren SLR!!!! :P :P :P Also there is a SL65, and a CL65, and a Maybach 62! Its as iff god was like go my son go down there and enjoy. So we see all those, my friend wanted a C230, but they didnt really try and give him a good deal. So we end up at the Jaguar Dealer, i had told my friend that if they gave us trouble i was just gonna start talking shit about their F1 team, because i had just bought my BMW Williams F1 Hat, with the Shumaucher, they wanted to give me montoya but i said i dont like traitors, and me and the guy behind the counter started shooting the shit about F1, and how McLaren sucks. Anyways at the Jag dealer Note im still wearing my F1 hat, whats there but an Aston Martin DB7 R 1 or something like that. But it was 59 or like 117 i think. 8) Then we go up stairs and my friend falls in love with the X-Type Jaguar, 2.5 Stick wtih AWD, hes probably gonna get it. Then on the way home out of nowhere i spot a 575 M coming to other way, 1 minute later a 911 Turbo with the spoiler just starting to go up so you know he was hauling ass. Another minute passes and a fucking GT2 goes by!!!!! :shock:

you are one lucky SOB!!! The closest i've been to anything like that was in Scottsdale, AZ at the North Scottsdale automall.
Porsche, Jag, Aston Martin, Bentley, BMW, AUDI, Land Rover (complete with offroad test course :D ) Volvo, Lincoln, and VW ( i think that's all of them, someone correct me if i screwed up)
in the middle of the dealer is the Penske Racing museum. complete with NASCAR, and CART/IRL winners and pace-cars. UPSTAIRS (yes, upstairs) is all of his trophys and flatscreen TVs playing SPEEDchannel all day. (i caught the last 5 laps of the '03 US Grand Prix there) and if that isn't enough, a few miles down the road is the Ferrari dealership!!!! (68th St. and McDowell if anyone is in the area)
Scottsdale Dr. near Loop 101 for Penske.
But you're seeing all this stuff on the road :!: I had to go to the dealer to see this stuff :? I envy you!!! 8)
I just reminded myself i also saw 2 355 Spiders, and a Bently Arnage at a rental car center. :D
