I will never NEVER buy a C6. Corvetts are NOT worth it. I have a 03
C5 Convert. C6 are overated. I rather take the money and buy a Lexus or 750IL.

I would never pay all that money for a C6, people are crazy

YOu want to compare the ride of a Corveete to a LExus or 750IL, are you crazy??????? YOu have NOOOOO idea what you are talking about. Corvetes do NOT have smooth rides. THey are all bouncy rough rides.

NO I ma just tired of the cheap plastic, boring interior of a corvette. I have moded my C5 and it is all garbage, cheap stuff, poorly made and designed. YOu want to compare a C6 to a LExus or 750IL?????

YOu are not being honest to yourself
