Default Saw a C6 yesterday

Been off the net for awhile so don't think I'm retarded if this seems old news. I was working out on Vasco Rd. in Livermore Ca. yesterday. Saw a white C6 coming at me with dealer plates and a fairly young looking guy driving. Car looked good but was definately more sloped in front. Noticably smaller too. I'm still not sure if I like'em. Can't wait to see a pic of the new Z06

Just thought I'd share, we now return you to our regularly scheduled broadcast.

Later
Rich.

Welcome back..

Do a search on that topic on this website and you'll see lots of reaction and comment from forum members on the C6. Lots of polls taken, lots of opinions given...makes interesting reading.

Haven't seen any on the road around here yet. I'm sure they will start showing up soon. Saw one at Bloomington Gold though. The new style is growing on me.

I saw my first C5 at the Corvettes for Kids tour this past sunday. It's not as bad as I thought although I still prefer the looks of the C5. C6 is nice, but I can wait a long time before I let go of my C5.
