Finished the book today, good read, only gripe I have is there just wasn't enough drawings/pics of the car as it progressed thru design.
PMed Jack, to get it moving his way
Thanks again disturbed, much appreciated

Found and just bought a used, like new, hard copy from Amazon. Great bargain price at $4 with shipping included. Can't wait to read it.

Wow, you did get a good price. I also found my hard copy with cover on Amazon but it cost me $20 including shipping. My book came from a small PA town library in northern PA that sent me a thanks for buying the book since it help their money to buy new books. I have listen to the audio version once, and read the book twice. It will be part of the history I have put together when the car moves on to a new owner (but not very soon).

I actually had Peter Cavarillo who is mentioned in the book and former GM employee at our shop this summer getting a new radio put in his C6. Great guy as well!

My almost new $4 hard copy just arrived in the mail earlier today. It'll make a great addition to my library. Can't wait to get started on it. Totally agree on the title.

I couldn't finish it. The info was good, but there was too much of it, some of it trivial. My takeaway was that GM is an impossibly large, Byzantine corporation that, in the case of the C5, nearly stifled the best efforts of many talented individuals.

You might want to check your libraries for the audio version of All Corvettes are Red. Mine had it. It was great listening to the narrator at my leisure. I had the same time limit (2 weeks) to listen that you get when checking out the book. I like the story so I found almost a non read pristine copy from an out of state library that was selling it. I plan to read the book this winter when the snow if falling.
