If it's the same car, why did he make two threads?

^ I could be wrong, happened once or twice before. However, he seemed pretty sold on the 2011 in his other thread.

It is the same car. The 2011 supersonic blue. I apologize for making a second thread. I was just very excited and wanted to share. I guess I wasn't thinking 100% clearly.

No prob, I just didn't check the other thread, assuming this was a different car.

I couldn't stay out of the vette. At 10:30 I left the house for a quick drive. An hour and some change later I'm finally home. This thing runs like a scalded dog.

186? No.

86? Probably brushed up against it once or twice.

Fastest I've ever been in a car...a Corvette by the way ('96 C4)...was 132. That was probably in about 2004. Never again. Things happen real fast at that speed.

Just got this 09 after being out of a Vette for a year. This is my 4th C6.

I sold my 2011 GS last year for a CTSV. What a mistake, glad I'm back
