My vette was a convertible and I live in Florida. The top was down 99% of the time. I miss other vettes waving at me, though that has diminsished .
I miss the style of it. It's a frigging Corvette.

Mustang is a 5.0 GT Fastback
All the bells and whistles.
Drives beautifully and has power.
Doesn't sound like my Vette with it's Corsa's. Need to work on that.

Exactly the same as my response would have been!

I have asked this to myself continuously. Maybe an ATS-V but I doubt I would do it. Thought about a new SS Camaro but I just could not do that either. Never a Mustang says me or my wife. I just bought my wife a 2016 Acadia and for now one payment is enough. The Vette is paid for and still does it for me but my 2 boys are not getting any smaller; they love the Vette though when I take them to soccer practice in it...yes, one at a time of course.

The Corvette is nothing more than a play thing. My daily is a GMC van (work) and after that my 2017 GMC Sierra Denali diesel. Wife's car 2016 GMC Yukon Denali XL.

I'd buy another Vette, probably a blown GS (C6) this time to help with my current traction issues after having my current one blown.

If I didn't go Vette, probably go new Mustang with blower added on day one.

My last Corvette was a roadster, my current Grand Sport is a roadster. I might be tempted to go with a coupe for a change. It would definitely be a Grand Sport. If they'd bring back Electron Blue Metallic I'd make my purchase quickly. 3LT is what I have and I'd stick with it.
I've got to be careful, this is very tempting. I love my C6 but the C7's are starting to grow on me.....the tail lights are still very difficult to get used to.

An SUV suitable for a daily driver, taking to the mountains in winter and possibly towing.

I have done so much Corvette stuff over the past 10 years, I really don't have a desire to do another 10.

Ive actually been cruisin Autotrader looking at cars the last couple of weeks. I love my vette but I think I am just ready for something a little bigger. I have been looking at the Cadillac VSport, BMW 5 Series and the Maserati Ghibli.

I blew the doors off a new 5 series yesterday in my bone stock vert, just in case power is what you're after.

This thread turned out pretty good actually. It was interesting to see how many of us would look for another Corvette or move onto a different type of vehicle.

Tesla P100D with glass sunroof. 0-60 in 2.5 seconds. Just test drove one as they had a test drive session in CT (as we don't have any dealers in CT). Loved the instant power.
