I skipped the C5 and went straight from a 1996 C4 to my 2009 C6. Whoa! This was as different as the Mercury rocket was to the Space Shuttle. The difference is amazing. Everyone I talk to says each generation is so much better. I certainly agree.

Went from a 98 coupe to 08 vert. Still miss it.

I had an ‘03 coupe for five years. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but, I like my C6 even more. I have owned it for eight years and have no interest in moving to a C7.

03 vert to 07 coupe to 12 GS Centennial vert. I like the C6 better than the C5, especially the 12.

Bought a 98 C5 coupe auto new in 1999 , lovd it nver a problem but the auto was kind of a ***** car so sold it and went to a 2013 GS with a M6 in 2014 -- love the C6 more --- BUT would be very happy with either.

I liked the Grandsports so much I bought 2 of them -- Black and a Torch Red .Both are M6.

Went from a 1986 C4 to a 2012 C6 which I just bought last week.

Other than the C1 & C2 cars, I never had any interest in any other Corvettes until the GS was released in 2010. The base model C6 doesn't appeal to me. I looked at the C7's, but I like C6 GS far better.

I had a 2002 coupe automatic for a couple of years. Electron Blue with black interior. I added a cam, headers, CAI, exhaust, torque converter and a few other appearance mods. It made 400HP at the wheels and was fast. A friend asked me one day how much would I take for it? The next thing I knew he was driving away in it. I always wanted a 6 speed vert so I recently jumped on a 2010 3LT that I found online that had 4,100 miles. It is optioned very nicely and has everything but NAV which I can live without. The C5 had more throttle response but the C6 is more refined. I have already done W2M, CAGS, and I think I will pull the trigger on a Vitesse Throttle Controller to help with the lag. Great car and I'm just waiting on the weather to clear to drive it more! I also have a C2 (1966 convertible) and I will post pictures of the new addition when I can!

We bought a 98 Coupe in 2005 and put 30K miles on in 4 years. Torch Red/Light Oak with auto. I liked that car a lot. Traded it in 2009 for a 09 CSR, Z51, 6 speed, 1LT. Not many creature comforts, but was a blast to drive. In 2012 we bought a 12 GS Centennial Coupe. We drove the GS on the 2014 NCM Caravan. 26.5 mpg in 5700 mile trip. An excellent long trip car. We kept both the 09 and 12 until 2015 when we traded the 09 for a 15 3LT Coupe. I love driving the 15 but I still like the C6 GS looks better. You won't go wrong with a C6. Bob

I had a 2003 C5, the 50th year of the vette. Now I have a 2013 C6, the 60th year of the vette.

I had a 02 vert 6 speed mag red for 13 yrs. Always wanted a C6 Z06 coupe so I thought, I ended up w/a 13 60th anniversary 427 roadster.

Aliquantus

I had a '98 and a '99 vert. Both were decent cars, but I definitely love the '09 a lot more. Pretty sure I'll be upgrading to a widebody very shortly though.

Tally Ho

I had a triple black 98 convertible before I bought my 2006 C6 conv. new. Once you drive a C6 at night, you will not miss your pop up headlights. I felt the same way until I saw how much better the C6 lighting was. Best of luck on your quest for a C6.

I had an '04 Z06 before my current '09 Z06. I do miss the '04 from time to time, but I don't regret anything in the least.

95rtturbo

I had a supercharged 04 Z16 C5Z prior to my HCI 08Z. It was a fun car, but doesn't really compare to the 08Z in any way.

69 L46 4 Speed

I started out with a 69 L46 4 Speed Roadster and then purchased a 99 6 speed convertible. I really wanted a GS so I bought a 13 GS, 3LT, MN6, convertible that I absolutely love and traded the 99 in. I sold the 69 a few months later because we weren't driving it and I didn't want it just sitting around. My 99 was a great car but I can't keep my a** out of the seat of my GS.

GrandSportRob

I had a 99 C5 for 9 1/2 years, loved the car. I would only upgrade to a Grand Sport since I love the widebody. Since your looking for a GS your making the right choice. If you can try and find a 2013. I bought mine new almost 5 years ago. Been problem free. You will love the power of the LS3 over the LS1 and the braking/handling of the GS can’t be beat.

Cardinal Flyer

Have enjoyed a ‘65, ‘72, (took a break to raise kids), ‘93 and ‘01. All Verts, all sticks, all pop up headlights. Never thought I’d go beyond the C5 because of the headlights. Then I test drove a ‘13 427, and fell in love with all 505 horses. The other plus in upgrading is I get to start modding all over again
Power is an aphrodisiac—— GO FOR IT!

You mention a 2013, any reason not to look at the earlier models??
