How much does the average Z owner make a year?

Grew up in the 60s drag racin on the street. The days where a guy would say "i got a 1/8 mile car, thats what I run" so my dad would be in the driveway droppin a different trans into his car the day before. He was a Corvette man thru and thru. He actually went thru the windshield of his friends Vette at one point and bounced off the pavent quite a bit before comin to a stop. He was read his last rights in the hospital, but made it anyway. He always joked that when he died I would buy a Lamborghini or something ridiculous with his money, so the way I recieved it sorta prevented me from doing so, not that I would have. Ive been a life long Z lover, owned many. My 370 was part of a healing process. My father and I were always talkin bout cars, one thing we really had in common. We never got to do a project car together and he never got to get his Vette back befote he passed. My Z project is dedicated to him. Oh and he was a total "do it yourself and use the right damn tool!" kinda guy. So I make sure I personally spin all the wrenches

Very well put broski. Your money goes farther in the South. My lady gave up on trying to convince me to move MidWest since I could work from anywhere I wanted we would have lived off comfortably in a ranch style place with tons of land and within a fraction of our income closer to her family but noooo I'm enjoying so much being close to all the partisan bickering among politicians, working harder to squeeze more value of my dinero, higher property taxes, higher property cost, new earthquakes + hurricanes, being closer to my family and the last but not least not having to squash the pumpkin of some dumb clan member staring at me because I was macking a couple of caucasian ladies in the club all by myself , I'm loving it out here a lot. I'm digressing, your money goes a long way in the South

Of course for me, I'm still paying for a place in Reston as well...so I guess that's losing?

That one and only instance was in Muncie, IN (believe me, if and when you get there, your first reflex is to check if we are still in the 21st century). It's rough that you also have to pay for the place in Reston dude. We're hanging out this Saturday with Randy right?
