Oh I would love a C6 Z06, just can't stomach paying for one since mine has been paid off so long and still looks/drives well.

Snail ? you calling me old bro ? Lol well now that I think about it I purchased her when I was 24 & I'm 37 now so yep I'm getting old but I'll never be to old to mod my car & keep driving her, my goal is to keep her running for the rest of my life. Most people may think it's not possible & they may be right but with all of the pre Maintance, record keeping to know when a part will go out & then replace it before it does, constant oil changes with the Mobil one fully synthetic annual protection, having a brand new 0 mile LSJ 2.0 SC engine on standby for when mine just can't go anymore, body work, rust protection she should outlast me

Not an LSJ but the balt was the first car I ever purchased, I think it was may of 07. Still running strong, but I daily an ATS now. Part of keeping it for me is still owning the fist car I every bought, nearly a decade later. Kinda cool.

Not so fast. I put my down payment on my 2005 Cobalt SS on March 1st, 2005 and I picked it up on April 11th, 2005.I was the first owner to receive a Cobalt SS in the local area where I live.
While my car is not in stock form it still has a VIN #, it is still street able and has an insurance policy.
When I asked the local race track about racing on street legal nights I was told I can race in sports compact class because it is a Cobalt SS regardless of the modifications.

I purchased mine in October, 2009. I still own it.
So I'm at 11 years now of ownership.
