I noticed that yesterday, and today I read here the first C6 have shipped. I wonder what that will do to the prices of the remaining C5 left over?

Corvette's have held their value better than most sports cars. It will just be an average decline in value over the years.

Not quite. This is what comes up if you click the Build Your Own link:
Information is not yet available for 2005 Corvette
models, but you can build a 2004 model below.
Strange.

I found it! Go to Build Your Own, type in the stuff, hit submit, and it'll still bring up the beloved 2004 Corvette Options.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... blah, blah, blah! I have no regrets! Maybe because I'm older, I have adapted to a great deal of change, and this is down there with replacing a TV. You didin't enjoy the old one any less while you had it. We own superior automobiles that are still to die for!

Funny, I looked the first of the week, the old site with C5s was still
there. They must have put the new C6 site out there the day they started
shipping! Moving us outa the way for the latest/greatest.

Nice looking car though. I'm getting hooked on blue;
