Brand loyal or just like a good vehicle?

When I talk about a Corvette to my friends every one of them says they've always wanted one followed by their hard to get in and out of. LOL..
I have recently considered a C3 Vette, BUT like said, someone would have to pull my *** out of the darn thing.
IT ws a 86 and that was about late 90s. It had a flat torque curvem hauled *** down the back country roads. I liked it. I was mid 40s and people looked at me strange when they saw me in it> Why??????? Dunno. Guess they thought I was in some kind of mid age crisis??
