Default Options MAKE you cool

Now that the Z51 owners have differentiated themselves as better because they checked the box, its time for all the NAV guys to REPRESENT.


LOL


There needs to be subcategories in c6 General.

Nav
Heated Seats
Power Top
F55
MN6
A6
A4

OBVIOUSLY - checking the options box makes you better.

Default who is better

After watching Corvette grow and get better over the last fifty three years. It seems to me that there is so little real competition out there that the new Corvette owners are left to bicker between them selfs over what is better Z51 F55 polished wheels stick or auto what color is better or faster, what ever happened to picking what is better for you and your needs and then go pick apart every other brand of Corvette wannabes. Stick together and pick on the other guys, thats called brand loyalty. FASTLANE

Default Mustangs s*ck.

Dump on the F*ords - support your fellow Corvette drivers, all of them.

By the way, the V*pers are not so practical either. And don't get me started on German convertibles.

and remember what goes with hot dogs, baseball and apple pie.

I absolutely, positively agree with that. A considerate, reasoned, well thought out post deserving of much merit. Having said that...your wife's car sucks, assuming it's not a vette of course.

Default Slow night?

Must have bad driving weather in Grosse Point, cause Monster would rather stir the pot than to something useful like REPRESENT the Z in the streets of Mi.

Who are you trying to impress, dude?

Haven't been here long, have you? Driving weather's got nothing to do with it.

After all the various options and combinations are accounted for we can then start on what setting we have them at. I have my NAV set to DAY/3D all the time. Does that make me special

I am the opposite.

I think COOL is getting more stripped down cars.

NO FLUFF!

My 2005 C6 Vert only came with THREE options:

Velocity Yellow (my favorite color), Polished Rims (I could have passed on them), and a 3.15 rear (MUST HAVE!).

Usually the only options I will check are Performance Options.

If they would have had a Velocity Yellow Coupe with just a 3.15 rear I would have driven home in that!

Even so my Vert was only a $54665 MSRP, less than many coupes out there.

I will say, Navigation is a GREAT mod since I never ask directions.
I have it in my Lincoln Navigator.
For my Vette and Cobra I have GPS Units at work that I borrow for long trips.

This has gotten a wee bit crazy. I've got Z51, but I wouldn't dream of putting on another badge, etc. on my Corvette. Couldn't care less if someone els has it or not. What's really cool in my mind is a ZR1 or a sweet '67 - 427 vert. Just drive it and enjoy it and wave to all you see.
