Anybody disagree?

Hey, I thought we were comparing the C5 and C6! That's not fair! I didn't say I parked next to THAT C6!!! Cheater!! I'm taking my car and going home.

Can I ask a question?
If we all agree that C5's look a lot better than C6's, why are we continually posting the same thing over and over?
It seems like the fat girls mother trying to tell her she's beautiful. If the C5 really is a better car, why do we spend all this time trying to convince ourselves of that?

Well, if we are going to talk about non corvette owners and what they think of the C6. I will say I've got a lot of remarks from people when they find out I've got a corvette and how they don't really care for the new one. Most think the front end and no pop up lights make it look like everything else on the road. Being a owner of a C4 and now a C5 I liked the C5 from the word go but the new C6 will have to grow on me. It is a nice car and now part of the corvette family so I know it will earn it's place in corvette history..and most likely in my driveway one day

Couldn't have said it better myself. I love em all, I believe any corvette fan would. JMO.

And I still love the looks of the C4. They are all 'vettes.

I think the C6 looks better in photos than it does in person. In person, the roof line looks too tall, and the length looks too short, especially when parked next to a C5.
The C5 looks better in person, than it does in photos. It looks longer, lower, meaner.
At car shows (like the Detroit auto show where the C6 was introduced), I have observed that most of the younger kids thought the C6 was the coolest car they'd ever seen; but, they're not the ones with the $$$ to buy it.
