Will a C5 Targa Top fit on a C6?

Interesting question. I don't know but since there is very little difference in the frame of the C5 vs the C6 I suspect it might. Unless they changed the way the roof latches.

I don't know, but here's another thread about the same question.

I don't think so.

C5 coupe is 1 inch wider and 5 inches longer than a C6 coupe.

Even if it did fit into place and the latches worked (which I doubt) the C5 roof is shaped differently and would not line up with the halo on the C6.

I just have to ask: why? That is, in what situation would you need to know that? If you need a top for a C5 or a C6, you should buy the one that goes with that car.

Just wondering...
