Just picked up my 08 Vert. with Z51 and NPP exhaust, traded my 04 Vert. All I can say after 12 miles is wow compared to 04.

Congrats!!!!

I have had so many Vettes, 4 C4s, 2 C5s, the only ones I can honestly say I LOVED were the C6s, with the LS3 it would be even better.
I am on my 5th C6, and I still have 2 of them.

Congrats again

Howard

Congratulations on the new ride. Welcome to the family. Many of us here came out of the C5 into the C6. These are great cars and the '08's really raise the bar. Here's to many miles of smiles.

Congrats to both of us. I got mine on the 2nd.

How do you like the new NPP? Mine sure has a rumble at idle that my 07 did not. These are great cars though.
