I just got my new c6!!!!
Folks,
I checked out a lot of vehicles between the prices of 40-65k and there is no other car that comes close to this vette. Man o Man it's awesome...just put 400 miles on it. My color is black/black with the z51 package. I've tried driving the 4spd auto but I think it's way too uncontrollable. The 6spd is the way to go!!!! Anyone can give me their best times from 0-60 and 1/4 mile with the z51?

My best times haven't been tabulated...but I've had thousands of moments that take my breath away...:-) My favorite is first to second with a neck jarrin'g powershift. Thank goodness for a few thousand miles!!

Everytime I drive this car, I say to myself..."this cannot be GM". However, I do own a 2003 trailblazer EXT which hasn't given me any problems( now has 33k miles). The vette is an overall amazing car. I've let my bimmer friends drive it and they cannot believe the drive of a vette. In fact, one told me that they would buy it over a bimmer!!!!! Plus, the lines on this car is outrageous. My next door neighbor calls it a sexy machine...LOL Yes it has been compared to a ferarri look along with the viper!!!
