Old or New
I have owned 7 Vettes in this order, 74, 68, 87, 93 ,74 and now an 05C6. I love them all but this is my first new one. It is about time to ride without all the problems that go along with the older cars.

A C6 and a C2 would make my perfect garage.
I think that its a question of age. I believe that many of those that like "vintage" cars do so based on nostaligic reasons. I personally dont like most vintage rides. So, I prefer the new stuff. Overall, id say that the C6 is the best vette ever, but when the c7 comes out i would most likely endorse that one.

Me too if I ever get mine.
Even though I like them all c5 is at the bottom of my list. I think it's because the c6 favors it so much but looks so much better....for example line up a c2 and a c6 both have their own look but line up a c5 and a c6 and since they favor a lot it makes the c5 look like a way outdated c6 ...like a early one or something.
I think the c5 will plunge bc of this in the future because up to now each generation has had it's all certain look and STYLE but the c5 get's mixed in between a c4 and c6 too much....and it's too round I like crisp line like the c2,c4, and c6 have
c2,c4,c6,c3,c1,c5 all verts..... thats how i rate um!

From a driveability standpoint the vette just keeps getting better. I currently have a 61, 65 and 05 PR 6 Spd Z-51. The 05 is the best driving , handling corvette ever made. I had and 87 and a 98 before the 05. All great cars, but the 05 is just a superior car. The 61 gets all the looks but the 65 may be the best combination of looks, performance and driveability of them all. I love them all!
