I was a former C5 owner. I think you made a great call.

I thought the bluetooth was only on the 09+. Don't quote me though as I have an 07.

Thanks again guys and of course Save the Wave

Any features or things you guys can think of about the 08 C6 that are not well known about that I should know about? Like the bluetooth? I hope it has that.

Oh and anyone looking for some nice used C6 corvette check out Huffines of Lewisville and talk to Joseph he is a great guy and has been a tremendous help.

They have a couple of Indy Pace Car Edition C6 Corvettes up there that are really nice and then they have a Black version of my car with the Z51 suspension instead of the F55 super clean and very low miles. It was a hard choice between mine and that one.

Yeah those guys have all been great. Joseph my sales guy made me a great deal and made it very easy to work with him. Some sales guys are overbearing and such but he is awesome. I highly suggest anyone looking for a corvette or any chevy or subaru go talk to these guys they have a great selection and really good prices.

Default Nice, change the sway bars out to Z51's.

I have not taken my own pics yet because it was 9pm when I left the dealership. But I must say I love this thing. By SOTP it feels quicker than my Z was. The ride and road noise is a hell of alot better in this. I am reading through the manuals that came with it to figure out all the features and how to use them. I am sure I will be asking a bunch of questions on stuff I can't find through the search. Here is a link to the car I bought and I will get some pics soon.

Very nice, but it will be even better if you change out to Z51 sway bars for about $180. It will handle more like your C5Z.

Welcome to the C6! Very nice cars. I still like my C5 Z06 boyracer, but the C6 is a superior car. I'm sure you will enjoy it!
