The bad news: I traded in my C5:

The good news: I get to drive this beast now!


First let me say that I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent in my C5 and I was sad to see it go, but the new C6 was just calling my name and I couldn't resist! This forum has been a great place to spend some time enjoying my car with others and learning everything I ever needed to know. I won't miss replacing my oil pressure sensor 4 times, but I will miss all the people that have helped me with my diy projects over the past three years. I promise stop by from time to time to offer advice on my favorite topic that will always be here: (enter noob voice) Which type of exhaust should I get?
Thanks again!

 

Congrats! Enjoy your new C6.

 

least its another vette!

Nothing wrong with a C6 and congrats on the purchase

 

Black with Competition Grey Wheels- I wasn't sure at first, but in person- I am very glad I chose them over chrome or polished! Here is the picture in my new avatar:

 

 

Congrats on the new Vette! Have fun keeping it clean!

 

Enjoy!....I still love my C5, but I would trade up to a C6 tomorrow if I had the money.

 

After about 200 miles in 2 days! the biggest difference for me is going from the mn6 c5 to an automatic. I use it as a daily driver and I am loving not having to shift in traffic! I don't know what all of the fuss about the paddle shift is about, I am still taking it easy until the car hits 500 miles and then maybe I will test it a little. I also went from a Z51 c5 to a non-Z51 c6 and the ride is smoother but a little less responsive. The seats are AWESOME! The are a major improvement over the C5 seats in terms of comfort, although I feel like I am sitting a few inches higher than in the C5.
My C5 was mostly stock, so the stock C6 has more power than my old C5 and I am loving that! The interior looks more modern and the stock stereo sounds better than the stock C5 setup. I am still getting used to the "KEYLESS" entry/startup/exit as all you need to do is have the FOB in your pocket to open the door and start the car. I miss the popup headlights and I am not crazy about the C6 Stock exhaust (big suprise)
The biggest problem I am trying to figure out right now is what to do about the required front NJ Plate??? I don't have one on now and don't know if I am going to ever put one on.
Thats all I can think of for now, if anyone has any questions about other differences between the C5 and C6 feel free!

 

I'm leaning that way also.

 

Congrats and good luck to ya!

Come back and visit...

 

Nice pick-up. I see you are in AC, is this a Kerbeck job? Now that you own a C-6, I hope you still remember to wave.

 

 

Have fun with the C6.

 

See ya! Does it look a little like this?
