I just don't have the ambition to take a $600 car (what I paid for my '64 GTO convertible in 1992) to a show winning car. I've been driving that car for 30 years and now am considering a repaint (in Cameo Ivory again) and a new convertible top. That's as big a project as I want to take on at this time.

I still want to get a Solstice for myself, because it was so much fun to drive.
Man you're tough. I'm glad you are still doing well. I actually remember reading the post when you guys got your daughters Solstice. Nice looking car.

Since I've been back looking at cars for sale I've noticed the prices for the Solstice are strong.
