How many Senior Citizens Own a ZL1

I know there was a thread of average age, but this one is different.

I just turned 65 and bought my ZL1 two years ago. It still smells new, but drive it regularly.

How many peeps are seniors here?

Recent picture keeping myself young by riding my bike all the time.

Also, the lake is where I ride, bike and ZL1

How does one define senior citizen? If you go by the AARP standard, it is 50+

If that is your standard, then I just barely qualify at 52 years crazy...

I don't have a standard other than what the world thinks it is

Hi all,


Well, l qualify at 66. Was very active up through retirement at 65...still working as a patrol sergeant in law enforcement. On duty injuries in '17 started my retirement process. It's a bit tough on the hurt left knee...but had to have the best M6 ever in a newer Camaro...the ZLE M6!!!

These ZLE's are a real, true "last of a breed" American muscle car, and l've enjoyed every one of the 6k miles l've driven. All electric probably before l KTB...really glad l have it!!!


JJ

AARP is still young and working class...

Also, if you thought the letters and calls for AARP were bad when you approached 50...

...just wait til 65 and the Medicare Supplement scam artists start calling. I know because of a friend..

Bought my 5th gen ZL1 back when I turned 60, 7 years ago. Still have it and it still puts a shit eating grin on my face every time I drive it.

Ask BeckyD about the day I picked it up from her. A day I will never forget for many reasons.

Being a WS6 5th gen owner since starting 25 years ago, I got the ZLE because I didn't want to be that Corvette owner meme guy, even though I might qualify by age.

I qualify for that being 61. I also quality as a Corvette meme guy since I have a 15 Stingray in addition to the ZL1.
