My C7 is my 4th Corvette. I drove my C4 a lot. Then I saved my C5 for the next owner. I learned my lesson and drove my C6 GS a lot, including a HPDE day and a trip to the NCM. I ordered my C7 in October on my 60th birthday, picked it up on January 24...then it snowed...and snowed...and snowed. In a week I've put 300 miles on it and I'm having the time of my life. It is THE best of the four by far. I absolutely enjoy every minute of driving it. I'm with astroopa1, I drive mine but wash and detail it to keep it immaculate. The bonus is that I find washing and detailing to be relaxing.
