Oh yes they are. I've seen them.

And I like them ... you sexy thing you.

 

Now I'm offended!! You must have issues!! And what's wrong with you, with a screen name like "Rogue Wave" ???

Do you think you're so tough that you have to call yourself a rogue? Are you trying to make us all feel bad because we don't wave?



How are you, Roger? You C5 Owner. You double C5 Owner. You double C5 and C3 Owner.

Do you think you are better than everyone else because you have three Corvettes?

 

Why yes... yes I do. You got a problem with that?




Sorry ps374, don't mean to hijack your thread. To answer the original question... the C6 is an all new design.

 

I couldn't agree more...

 

No, man. I love you, and I love Corvettes. All of 'em. Well, all, except for the ridiculously modified ones - but - to each his own. I don't want to start a fight with the modaholics!!!!

 

THINK is an important word in your reply.

YOU are wrong.

I can see by all your assinine replies to this post that you will undoubtedly come back even again to say you are correct, BUT I am sorry Z51, The Corporate Minds at GM are not the ones that have given the Corvettes their generation nicknames or designations.

But then again, who the hell cares.

You really don't give up do you? You apparently think every thing you say, whether you actually know or just think you know what your talking about is fact......

 

Your reply is pretty assinine, yourself. Do you want to have a discussion, or an argument? I can do either.

I chose the words "think" and "I recall" for a reason. It's not like you're a super genius who trapped me with my own words.

Please re-read what I said. I think you got it wrong.

And stop being argumentative, unless you want me to start insulting you, too.

Beyond that, there's no point in answering you.

 

Now I am confused ... All this talk about C5 and C6 people... man now I don't know who I am, as I have both... now to really muck it up I also have a C3... So I just think of them a Vettes.. I wave to all years, no matter which Vette I am driving.. I love them all.

 

Apparently the 'place' you visit is NOT the C6 section

Otherwise you would analysis the C5 section as the sanest of sections


Which post do you refer? From the number of posts you've placed in this thread I find it difficult to determine which are really your position - it does seem to change


Hmmmm, comments like this make one wonder

Statements like these are normally made by people that have spent a great deal of time in therapy

 

Hi Folks -

What we have here is a failure to communicate.....



RPOZ51 was just having fun with someone he knows - if you id not read the whole thread you may have jumped to the conclusion that this was a serious argument -

Anyway - IT is my opinion that the generational changes that GM does are always done to sell more cars and enhance the image of the Corvette.

History shows us that most often the generation change is precipitated by a relatively major change in the exterior appearance, without regard necessarily to mechanical revisions.

The one obvious exception was the change from c1 to c2, where the car had a major body revision in 1955 yet still remained in the nomenclature a c1. C2's were identified by a mechanical revision - hence many called the c1 a "solid axle".

best regards -

You are absolutely right!! - C6 Gen has a very similar set of characters. We can argue all day long about such serious topics as:
People get crazy about putting Z51 badges on their car. WTF??

The pics posted here of my car were taken the day I picked it up. About 25 Forum members caravanned me down to the dealership. The next day, I posted about what a wonderful experience it had been. A guy was all offended that I would imply that my experience was any better than his museum pick up. Absolutely cuckoo.

It has honestly been my experience that there is more of an edge here in C5 Gen, though.

I wonder sometimes, myself.


The invitation wasn't posted in here. It was posted by that little twerp, Alex, in the Northeast section, where the real Forum crazies are kept!!

Alex takes every opportunity to call my car a C5.2, and I tell him his car is really a C4, because of the 1967 to 1968 thing. It's a rolling joke between us.

Most of my early posts here were with tongue firmly planted in cheek. I wasn't expecting a thread entitled, "Is a C6 a C5" to be a very serious conversation. I truly love the C5, and did not come here to start an argument. (I still believe the "C" designation was started by GM, though)

Nope, never been. This place is my only therapy. Are you saying that from experience?


Obviously, you guys are sensitive about this stuff. I'll make all your lives easier, and stay in the CFNE where I belong.

Sorry if I offended anyone. Well, almost anyone.

Enjoy your great cars!

 

That is correct. The Caddy XLR rides on the same platform.

 

Yup. What can I tell you?

You guys are welcome to come over to the CFNE and have a drink in our bar thread. Link to Current Bar Thread.

I'm buying.

 

Now--Now--Now, Boys.......Let's all settle down and remember it's Christmas. This sort of stuff certainly isn't worth having a heart attack over...

 

And the Caddy XLR was something I will never forgive the suits at GM for doing. How do you talk the ICON of all sports cars and share its platform. Its an abomination.
