I personally love the US and would love the opportunity to live and work there. Americans tend to be stereotyped in Europe as you guys don't understand our sense of humour and also the way that life is over here.
I always find France really odd as 99% of the towns and villages seem deserted for example.
When I was at the Le Mans Classic a couple of weeks ago one of our guys was there in his fantastic 1960's Chevy Impala and the French went mad for that. American cars are something of a rarity here in the UK so having a Corvette you get a lot of attention

Whenever I am filling up with fuel I also get asked about the car by fellow customers and they are always surprised at how good the fuel consumption is.

I have now fitted a Bassani Cat Back system, a BPP Airbox and an iPod connector which works with my iPhone for playing music.
Welcome to the club, it is amazing the reactions we get in France, I never get to fill up without somebody taking photos or/and asking questions.

If you are near the South of England, why not try and do a circuit with me next year in Europe.

Le Mans is maybe the closest, (Last weekend) PM me and I will send you the details.
