The tide has turned
By checking the numbers on how many are active on the various forums it now appears that more of us are on the C6 forum than the C5 forum. This gap will only widen as time goes by. It is a shame, but we no longer rule the roost.

i think that the C5 forum will still thrive in spite of the apparent numbers discrepancies!you have to factor in the curiosity factor from all other forums in here;in addition to the C6 owners commiserating over some of their "first year blues" woes!that's not even taking into account the fact that the C5 is so much better looking than the C5.5(oops,C6)!!!

I think I have been to the C6 site about two times. Until I am interested in getting a C6, the majority of my time will be right here. I think the C5 site will be just fine - still a lot of good information to be had here.

Natural progession. Can't stop it, don't want to! Waiting for the Detroit Auto show for the new Z06 - maybe 2007 for me. No first years for me!
I'll come clean - I do check out the C6 forum on a regular basis (and the C3 forum)!

C6 forum numbers are inflated - I always start at the C6 forum only because none of the C5 forum links work from the home page!

yea, I think it's the excitement and the myriad of questions everyone has since it is new. Us C5 owner's can only remember the good ole' days in '97 when it was new and different.
i guess all the questions have been answered and observations made over the last 8 years

However, the C6 is growing on me and I do look foward to seeing them on the road......
