Default Not all bad !!!

With all the doom and gloom these days about GM and people complaining about their cars, I would just like to say my Vette is Fantastic, No problems at all, Runs great, Looks great, Sounds great. It seems to run fine in the rain and snow, It gets great gas mileage, everything works the way its supposed to. Even the dealer I bought it from was great, The financing was easy, no haggling no pressure, just nice decent people.
Just wanted to say I'm HAPPY and thankful I have a Corvette to enjoy and It has not disappointed us in any way. Thank you GM.

Do you have my Vette? Sounds like my Vette!! I think I need to run out to the garage and check!!!

Mine is a 2005 and the only thing I had to do so far, was replace the roof.

Matter of fact, I love my Vette so much I am going to reply twice to this thread.

And yes, I did go out to the garage and check on the Vette, which is what made me reply to this thread again.

I had a great buying experience and no "real" problems to date... I will be taking it in for the first time in 1.5 years for the targa poping noise, rear axle chatter.. nothing major.. The car is reliable, economical and totally awesome to drive...
