Future Corvette Owner
Hello everyone,
I hope to be a Corvette owner in the next few weeks. I have been looking through the forums looking for more information about each generation. I drove a C4 at an autocross last year and really like the handling, but they seem to be limited in headroom with a helmet on.
I'm starting to look at the C5s and C6s. It's my understanding that they're mostly the same platform, but the C6 has updated mechanicals and obviously the body panels are different.
Thanks, Rob
