Default Who would trade their C4 for a C5?

I love my car to death, but if I had the chance to own a new vette, I would. Would you?

Nope, don't need another car that depreciates rapidly. Now if someone wanted to trade for a C2 or bumper car convertible.........

I could trade the 86 in for a new vette. But then it would collect dust as the 86 does now. :D

I donno... it would depend on colour and mood...

I always debate between a ZR1 or an LT4...

If I did get a newer C5, it would be a 6spd coupe... I need storage space, so the Z06 is of little use.

I would maybe add a used C5 to the garage, but never trade my C4.

I dont know. It would depend on color, tranny, vert, etc. It would be hard to part with what I have now though. I love my car.:D

I would like to keep the C4 and add a C5...FRC. Two totally different cars...would be tough if I had to make a choice.

Straight up? Yes, then I would sell the brand new C5 and buy back my LT4 vert :lol:

If I HAD to keep it, then no. I would rather have my LT4 vert then a 2002 C5 vert w/ same mileage.

However, if they ever make a Z06 vert, yes... I would trade car for car :D

Never crossed my mind on letting a ZR-1 go for a C5, no desire for a C5 at all.

It is a hard question to answer, it is like getting rid of a comfortable pair of old shoes for a new stiff pair. It would take getting used to, and would feel good after a while. But there is that uncomfortable breaking in period, that you are wary about. There are alread 2 other vettes in my family, a one owner perfect condition 67 with Zora's autograph in the glove compartment and also has loads of awards from car shows, and a 93 LT1. So, I would hesitate at first, but would end up doing it after some consideration.

umm little andy? they do make a convertible z06...... but thats an aftermarket thing.... hutch did it to his z06 its sweet.

as for the main question if i could? well yeah i think would... but i'd end up selling it if i could find an awesome white with black interior LT4 coupe.

I used to say I wouldn't and actually I didn't. My '96 was sold before I bought this one. :) But, nevertheless I'm glad I did. :D
