Intro
Hello from Friendswood, TX.
Sold my C5Z06 a couple of years ago for economic reasons, back in the market thinking about a C6 convertible. Not satisfied with the trunk space, I'd like to be able to take a couple sets of golf clubs, so who knows what I'll ultimately get. I want to customize, but I've got a budget.
The C6 FAQ sticky is outstanding, looking forward to many happy hours of information gathering.
In some ways the search is better than the purchase. Then you start worrying about dents and dings from the grandkids, other drivers, parking lots. My wife said I was a lot more protective of my first one than I was her.

Welcome to the forum and good luck with your search. I get a full sized bag and a folding pull cart in the back of my coupe and still have room for a grocery run coming back from the course. But you're right - won't work with the vert.

If economics is a major factor then consider a brand new 2012 for 35K over in the C7 discussion. Only one problem...no vert at that price
Better not move too slow if interested.
I agree on the hunt
