-8th and dead last by LARGE MARGIN, the current C6
Its almost as UGLY as the Lotus Elise. At least Vauxhaul had the decency to buy Elise from Lotus and strip them of the REALLY ugly body to make a tolerable looking car...changed out the wimp *** engine too.
I hope the C7 is a stunner, or I'm going to be buying more C5s, maybe a C3 and hopefully a C2 too, until I die.

I like the way you think.

I happen to own a c4 and have had it for 10 years now. When I bought it the C5 was nowhere to be found. However, had it been available when I did buy mine I still would have bought the c4.
My girlfriend owns an 02 vert, and although it is nice on long trips I can honestly say the car has no soul. It does nothing for me. It is way too roomy, quiet and comfortable for my tastes, and I hate the styling of the rear-end. But I can certainly respect others who prefer it. It's just not for me.
To stay on topic:
C4
C2
C3 (68 - 72)
C1
C6
C5
C3 (73 - 82)

And what does that mean? That I can't have an opinion either?
You guys crack me up with your over-sensitivity. I think you're reading way too much Cosmopolitan and Glamour. Next time opt for the Chevy High Performance... I think you'll feel better about yourself afterwards.
