VA...The southern state with all seasons. We get about 1.5 feet per year, spread out from November to April.

It should be heading out as the Camaro is heading in. Happy Days!

Speaking of heated gadgetry on Corvettes . . . is it true that every Corvette comes with a heated cupholder as a no-cost option? There have been complaints that its always on though. I believe that this devices is commonly referred to as a 'tranny'. Any insight?

i would take pics our our morning dump but its now +5 outside and raining?? lol weather in toronto is so unpredicatable. this moring 25cm of snow and -10 weather, now its raining and +5 lol



seriously u know when u get alot of snow when they call in the army. yes the city of toronto called in the canadian army in the 90s i think to help with snow removal lmao



Calling the army . . . . . . ok ok, I'm good now . . . . . .

That was a snowstorm. Don't call the army for a snowstorm. Call the army when there is a blizzard! Buffalo/Fort Eire get dumped on like that at least once a year.

It doesn't snow in Oklahoma. It just gets as cold as Jack Frost's sack.


The Cobalt has heated seats too though. Booyah.

What is this...Pick on big brother day?

The C6 is a PLASTIC freak-mobile. Practical, it is not. Fun, it IS.

Some owners remove all interior items, and add an insulating sheet to the floor area. The heat is from the massive dual exhaust pipes running through the tuunnel.

The Z06 and ZR1 have even larger pipes, creating even more heat, compounded by even tighter clearance tolerances "in the tunnel".

There are even aftermarket tunnel braces, that offer more cooling holes to aid in evacuating the heat build up.

Both are effective, both together, very effective. I couldn't care less. I never notice, I'm too busy stepping on it, and going HOLY SH*T!

No bud, it was Ed Morse Sawgrass. He was the only nice person there. He worked for Ed almost 30 years. We talked about the local car biz, went for the delivery test drive. Great time, great guy. Ratty dealer.

Have you had good luck at Lou's? I bought a Mazda6 at his Coral Springs store for my son. Chevy's there too. Post or PM me a good salesman at Lou's Chevy store, Coral Springs is much closer for me. Did you go to Coral Springs or the original store?

You think that is snow? This was taken in Newfoundland Canada, after a blizzard in 2001.
I did not take this picture, nor know who did. This is a slightly above average snowfall, for the maritimes, where a snowstorm can bury single story houses.

This pic is on the #1 highway, our National highway.

Wow they look very similar then. I was talking about the one in coconut creek on 441. It's a Chevy/Mazda as well. I haven't done any business with them, I just stopped there to go to the parts center during the summer and they wanted me to come to the showroom, LOL. I said i'd come back when the new Camaros were out, and the sales woman was very nice about it and of course she wanted some business because of seeing my old cavy.
IDK how old ur son is but I am probably around his age and I have no money so I couldn't order a Camaro no matter how bad I want to :(

Anyone who likes snow: You're welcome to come get mine for free after the next snowfall. Just take it right out of my driveway!

{horror deleted -- we don't need to see it a third time}
...and to think, I was going to post these pics of my backyard after a very windy and wet snowstorm last year:




Those are lame and boring by comparison!

Gotcha. LOL about c'mon in too. Yes, the Coco Creek Mazda/Chevy one.

As far as getting one, your time will come. Not everyone here is getting one right away. It's the yearning and dreaming that makes it come true.
