I get a lot of attention driving around in my car.

Well that's very commendable and the reasons mentioned above as to why these old guys in their 80s spend the wad on some flashy high end cars...They're looking for some attention...

Whatever spins your spokes!

BTW, you seem really angry..

Cheer up!

I'm not angry. I'm a very happy guy. You, on the other hand, seem bitter and covetous. Read your posts, you have to admit, you do sound like your typing about a bunch of sour grapes hanging high on the vine.

I bought a corvette (at 37 years old incidentally) because they are one of the few things being built to last a lifetime these days. It is, in fact, the finest car built by GM. The fact that it looks cool, goes fast, and gets 30 mpg is all just...icing on the cake.

So, I will be driving it when I'm 80 years old because it will have lasted that long. It's high quality and, if one has the money for high quality, why disparage them for it? Should I have bought something of lesser quality for some reason? Why?
