The Search is Over.....For Now

A little over 2 years ago, I sold my beloved 99 Corvette, something that I soon came to regret after the sale. The moment I saw my car drive away with a joyful and excited new owner heading back to Kentucky, I realized that I sold an excellent Corvette that I had never really enjoyed myself. I was caught up in the idea of keeping a car perfect, so that meant not driving it in any bad weather, (rain, cloudy days that could rain, rain in the forecast, etc.) parking it in places that took 15 minutes to walk to when I could have parked right in front of the shop, 8 hr detail jobs so that it could sit in my garage under a car cover. I loved that car and made it into a Garage Queen. I had put only 10,000 miles on the car in 10 years. Other Corvettes I had enjoyed. With the other cars, I went on outings, car shows, trips and just about anything that you do with a sports car. However, this '99 was too new and had no blemishes, marks, scrapes, curb rash, so I had to be extra careful and not ruin its value. Little did I know that I had already lowered its value just by owning the car and there would be normal depreciation regardless how I cared for my Corvette. I have learned form my past mistakes. I will totally enjoy this 2002 Corvette, take good care of it and DRIVE THE WHEELS OFF OF IT !!!!
