Thinking of getting a new Ferrari or Lamborghini after retirement?
I posted this on the other 'vette forum, but I'm putting it here too because it's funny and we could all use a little levity.

Ha ha! I am guessing we might have some C4 Z owners have to do similar to get in and out of our cars.

Sorry to hear this Yun. Yeah, our cars do have a challenging ingress/egress and I wonder how I will fair in 10 years? That is why a lot of them have the loose column from people using the steering wheel to get in or out. I wish I could see one of these in a C4 Corvette or a comparison of the generations. https://youtu.be/b2HDFTIfetQ Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry

Re: Thinking of getting a new Ferrari or Lamborghini after retirement?
Neat video! Interestingly, C7 is more difficult for me to get in and out of compared to C4. Seat to front of the door opening is shorter in C7s from my assessment. Didn?t actually measure but mt body tells me so.

Thanks for your thoughts. I thought for sure our C4s are the worst with those high sills. I have no idea how the big and tall do it. The C4 ZR-1 is my last Corvette so I will never know about the others generations. Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry

I bought mine from a guy in his 80's who could no longer get in and out of it.

Altogether too close to home. And despite the caption, it is a Lamborghini Aventador.--Bob
