FORDcnc???? Here we go again. Anything at this point is pure speculation. Specs for the 2009 will not be out until late Spring of next year....

Seems as if every year about this same time the speculation starts to creep in. Sometime around early February, rumors will start flying faster, until they rise to a crescendo about late March.

Unfortunately, as others have said, we probably won't really know any details until the spring.

Regardless, this is a great time to buy a vette' and you probably won't miss out too much on features if you are wanting a break financially. There's always a trade off. Buy the car now or wait until the new model, but if money is the factor, then now is the time to buy.

With the changes made in 08, i wouldn't expect anything significant.

If you're looking for a vette just buy one. I can tell you that the guys with the 08's don't have any more fun than the guys with the 05-07, or the guys with a C5, or C4 etc. etc.

If you're looking, just buy one, you won't regret it.

We havent even gotten to 2008 yet. The 08 vettes have only been out for a few months. I do not see any changes for 09. Now the only change would be the ZR1/SS supercar should be a 09 model.

my guess is that they will have a vette out in some shape or form. After that it's pure speculation.
