But, I'm looking. Is this just a site really more about the Z06 and mods or if I'm looking at convertibles what do I need to do to fit in. I personally want the speed and performance but I have a wife that wants the top down.
I am being pretty picky right now just because there are so many out there. Any Thoughts?

Welcome,
This is a great site I just purchased my convertible about 2 months ago from a forum member and would do it all over again. This site is a bunch of great people with a wealth of knowledge.

This site offers something for everyone. You'll find info on the coupe (targa), convertible, and the fixed roof coupe. And if you don't happen to find just what you are looking for, just ask a question and you'll get an answer. Best of luck in finding a car.

thanks for all the replies!!! I have taken some knowledge from the CF with me while looking at a couple of vettes and glad I had ya'll on my side. I guess I just got to wondering why it is mostly the Z06 in the for sale section,is that what everyone drove? 
Anyhow thanks again for the replies

They could be the most likely candidates to upgrade first, just because they had to shell out more $$ initially to get in the game, so when the C6 ZO6 hit, they might have jumped faster than those of us who bought the coupes.. still plenty of good cars at good prices around here.

That's because the Z06's are dogs.
J/k. Figure out what you want (or your Wife) and spend some time and you will be able to find a nice one.
This site is definitely for all.
Good luck.
