Default My new to me 2014 Vette



I just picked up a 2014 Z51 Convertible. This is my second vette. I traded in my 1995 Vette after 24 years of ownership. Loved the 95, and love the 2014. Two very different vehicles, but both great rides. The 95 Vette ran pretty flawlessly for the 42,000 miles I owned her. I hope the 2014 is the same!

Just bought my 2014 back in November after having a 2003 for over 9 years. Even between the C5 and C7 there was an enormous advancement in the Corvette. I had four C4s ('84, '89, '94 and '95) and the difference is even greater. Best of luck with your C7 - I think you will find it to be a great car.

Nice! Congratulations with the new purchase. These cars are amazing. I just bought my first Vette (2017). Read the manual!

Sold my C5, bought a C7-WORLDS of difference. My wife has a 96 convertible with 22k miles that we have had forever, seems like a go-cart compared to the C7. Enjoy!!!
