It sounds like this may be a very unpopular opinion, but I'm very glad that Chevy didn't do anything drastic for the 50th Anniversary. As I was researching the purchase of my 2002 Coupe, one of the things that Chevy "prided" itself on was that it never did anything on the anniversary Vettes that devalued the existing Vettes. If they would have made drastic changes or introduced the C6 in 2003, no one would buy 2002's in anticipation of the Anniversary model. This 50th Anniversary "package" is very similar to what they did in 1993.
So, before we all get too mad about the subtle changes to the 2003 Anniversary Vette, keep in mind that these changes help maintain the value of your C5.

Just a thought.......
