Never owned one, but I've driven a '61, '63 Split Window Coupe, a '67, a '68, a '72, a '74 and a '75. The '72 was my favorite. With cars I usually like the earlier models (Chevelle's, GTO's, 442's, etc), but with Vettes I like the newer ones, '70'-'72's as my favorites. They are pretty special cars and a 4-Speed is a must, lol.
