Default No Problems here!



Well I have been a C6 GS owner now for a whole 79 days. I have had no problems with my Supersonic Blue beauty. She starts and runs great. I am having a ball driving it and am enjoying every minute of drive time. Everyone waves, gives a thumbs up sign and children go wow! I feel like a celebrity. These cars really are attention getters. I have put 6100 miles on it already. I took a nice long vacation drive to the Midwest and back. I am looking forward to years of fun with this car. A big hats off to everyone on the forum for the education I am getting.

Beautiful GS! I've had my C6 for just under a month and couldn't be happier. Nothing makes me happier than the reactions I get from children. I get tons of looks at stop signs and red lights. The other night this guy actually put his back window down and him and his lady friend were checking out my car. I'm not too old myself (Just turned 28) and it's funny when people ask me, "Is this YOUR car?"

I have admired your car from a distance since I joined this forum. Very nice. Not a lot of us "Supersonic" guys out there.

Nice looking ride. Nice to hear that you are driving it and enjoying the experience. I have over 80K miles on my 06, many road trips, and have loved every single mile.

I have had my 2011 Grand Sport for 1695 days now and have had a few problems here and there. Nothing I would consider major.

You have a nice looking one and the reactions from people out in public is not uncommon. Oh how they capture the kid's attention.

Glad you like your Grand Sport.

But it can't beat Victory Red. Victory red always wins.
