That's what I did with my C4 when I bought my C6, I just kept it.

Yes. This is another toy in the shed. I tend to replace all my toys on a regular basis....

The only Vette I would trade mine for would be an Inferno Orange ZR1, however, those are next to impossible to find. Now I will add another Vette or two to this one eventually. Really want a C2 at some point, but will not be trading this one.

Most "would", but how many "can" trade? I am on my third Vette over the last 15 years. C5(red), C6 Z51(red) and C6 base(silver). I would love to trade up to a '12 or '13 GS 3LT A6 (red, silver, or blue) but can't yet. Would also like to have a supercharger to get to 600hp+. This sounds like a "Dear Santa" letter! I set aside a little something $$ every month and have my current Vette listed for sale. Its just a matter of time and the stars aligning!

The one car I'd trade my 2012 GS CE 3LT 6M in for is a 2012 Z06 CE 6M with every option, specifically carbon ceramic brakes!

Nope. The deals r huge on the C7s right now and I have zero interest to ever own one. Even if I could get past that hideous rear end I still don’t like direct injection, cylinder deactivation, cramped interior and all the sharp creases in the body lines that give it a transformer look that will be dated soon enough. The mid year Vettes are too expensive so I’ll add a 70 Chevelle SS as a stable mate to my 13 GS.

I voted yes, but the only Corvette I would trade mine for (2010 Grand Sport, JSB) is a C6 Zr1 in JSB.

Would not buy any other color.

Maybe on a '67 convertible but definitely not on a C7.

I'd go for a new C7 Grand Sport with track pack and the carbon ceramic brakes no problem.
Why? An even faster track beast than my '13 GS, capable of hanging with the new GT3's, for half the price of ownership.
To clarify, I love my GS, it's an amazing car and I've modded most of its shortcomings out of it. But, the new GS is a better car.
And its looks have grown on me.

I literally would not trade my Corvette for any other car ever made, at any price. It’s 100% perfect in my mind......

There's only one I would trade for - a red on red, low miles, C6ZR1. And even then I would have to really think about it. My 09 Red Z06 is the finest car I have ever owned.

For a restomodded C2, C6ZR1 or C7Z at a smoking price darned skippy, I would. Always looking. That said, I love my freaking car.
