CF & 'Vette, but my favorite is www.vette-vues.com more history, Specs. IMO geared more for the "Enthusiast" than just an owner. JOE

In the next three months I know at least two Forum members C5's that will be in Vette, and one that will be in Corvette Enthusiast.

I would also say that I like GMHTP because and old friend of mine writes a Column every month which I enjoy, and I also like Corvette Enthusiast.

And I agree about the special edition C6 thing. I like C6's but let me see some real world cars that guys built themselves.

Anybody can go buy a great car, very few seem to be able to really create something special on their own

I have a trunk full of both of them (including some Corvette Traders) from the mid-1990s. One of my last issues was one introducing the C5. I'm gonna resubscribe. Think I'll start with Corvette Fever.

I haven't had CF for several years. Currently subscribe to Corvette Magazine, Vette, and Corvette Enthusiast. Will not renew Vette. IMHO Vette is going the wrong direction. CE covers all generations. I like ALL Corvettes.

Black-Sheep:

I like CF. Nice section for technical issues specific to the C4, C5, C6, etc., in every issue. Great how-to articles as well. (You can also find most of them on their website).

PM me your addy if you want and I'll send a couple copies for you if you'd like to review them..

While I certainly like older vettes I am more interested in articles related to my car.


Vette because it has more C5 and C6 related articles.

I have a # and a % maybe that's why I like Corvette Fever!! I like the broader spectrum of coverage,,and the variety of projects.Maybe I just notice them more but it seems they have had plenty of C5 projects over the years!!
