Oh! That's how you find the odometer. Scottsredvette and TNSquire nailed it for me. Problem solved. Search ended. You know how some trivial little thing aggravates the hell out of you? That's where I was with the search for the odometer. I probably should have accepted the dealer's offer...

Oh! How embarrassing! I have a '17 C7 Grand Sport convertible, pretty highly optioned, with 7 sp. manual trans. I was asked by my insurance guy for the car's mileage the other day, and have not been able to find to find either the odometer or trip odometer.:duh I could not find any help in the...

If you had your choice between the two of them, which would you take? I would lean toward the Callaway because only 25 were made, I love its looks, and it's plenty fast, though the Z06 is faster, and has the C7 interior.

gm-plans-entry-level-corvette-sports-car You might be correct. I don't pretend to know how to change the car to allow it to be sold at 30-50K and make a profit. I would think that a 6 cyl. engine, non-leather seats, non-electric seats, unheated seats, cheap wheels, and on and on would drive...

I didn't get to Bloomington Gold this year, but have reviewed the Mecum auction results. It seems that the market is finally improving for either "original" or nicely cared for C2s and C3s. Until now, since the market tanked in 2007 or 2008, it was a very strong buyer's market. Things might...

GM plans entry - level Corvette Sports car, report says Mercedes Benz will soon market an "entry-level" sports sedan Benz that a buyer can get into for $30,000. Word has it that if you start checking off options, you can reach $50,000.00 pretty quickly, but that the $30,000. version will do...

But what is the smartest move? No issue, the 2013s are great, especially (for me) the 427s. My question is whether it might be better - money wise - to wait till the 2014s hit the market to buy one. When the C6s went into the showrooms, the C5s - mine included - dropped drastically in value...

Is there any information available as to whether there will be a C7 convertible? How about special models like the Z06, ZR 1, GS, and 427? What features come with the car and what options are available? How much will the car in all available forms cost?

The underside of my hood is painted gloss black. Some time ago some coolant leaked from the upper radiator hose, and the fan must have blown it onto the underside of the hood, where the heat from the engine dried and "cooked" it onto the painted surface. The dried coolant now looks and feels...

2 (for short), Thanks for the tip re dealer in OHIO. i will check it out. 3XBLACK67

What Will Intro of C7 Do To Price of C6? I sold my C5, and am looking at the 2013 C6 427 convertible. One in black would be fine, thank you. It seems to be a great car, but GM wants a lot of money for it. Will the intro of the C7 drive the price of all C6s down, even special models? Will...

Thermostat housing leak The only digital camera I have is a point and shoot that won't clearly focus on such a small object. I do think there is a piece of rubber with thread marks in the bolt hole that holds a long bolt, but that can't have anything to do with the leak because the bolt holes...

A small amount of anti-freeze leaks from the bottom of the thermostat housing on my 427/390, where the housing joins the intake manifold. I have tried different gaskets and stop leak products with no luck. Today I took the housing to a shop to have it machined flat, in case it had warped a bit...
