    Orange Peel

    wet sand Sorry to hear about your paint problem, but congrats on your C7 purchase. I think what they need to do is wet-sand the clear coat, then re- apply it. This worked fine on my car, all you have to do is pester them! Look, you spent a lot of money for a new Corvette, and you deserve a...

    Show off your C6's!!

    hello from Toronto / Mississauga .. Hey Vette fans; I'm from Etobicoke, (near Toronto) and a very happy C6 owner. A 2005 Machine silver coupe, w/ auto. trans. But I took this photo in Mississauga. The radical buildings in the background are referenced as "The Marlyins' (after Marlyn Monroe)...

    not too shabby, but ...

    Don't get me wrong, I like the C7 and the direction it is going. But as a C6 owner, I find the Height, or "stance" a little too high . And the tires could be a little wider (just sayin'):upthumbs

    C6 V.S. C4 seat belts ...

    Just an observation having owned both C4 and C6 'Vettes. The seat belts on C4 Corvettes feature a "Chinch" button so you can tighten your seat belt for "Spirited" driving. But the C6, with more HP does NOT have this feature! Does anyone know when ? or why? GM stopped this ? Thanks, Don.

    security cover....

    Hello Everyone; My question has to do with the security cover in the C6 coupes, that covers the back window section. (I have a 2005). Just behind the seats, the piece of "Cloth" hangs down and flops around in the wind, (annoying to say the least), Has anyone here had this problem, and...

    My new ride ...

    Hi; AV8R; not sure what you mean about the "auto headlamp door feature" perhaps I never used it, but it did have DRL's. Some things I like over the C4 are; 1). the lower entry levels, 2). newer technology and, 3). easier targa top removal. Hope you enjoy your '08 as much as I am enjoying...

    My new ride ...

    Hi Mac; After talking w/ a friend who does his own oil changes, I came to the conclusion that it's a lot less pain to go and get it done at say, Mr. Lube where there are no hoists. My concern was about having the car lifted, and possible damage to the panels etc. Thanks for the advice. Cheers...

    My new ride ...

    Hi, my name is Don and I have a serious Corvette addiction (LOL)! I have owned a 1985 coupe, black w/ red interior and the Z51 suspension that could loosen dental work ... Then I bought a 1994 in Polo Green w/ Tan interior (auto, bum knee..), Well, recession blues hit and I had to sell, but...

    Test drove a 1995 for sale...

    Not that simple,(it was more than just that), we saw obvious damage, the door and emblem are merely clues as to underlying problems . And when we questioned the dealer, they claimed to not know anything about it. So they were not being honest with us.

    Hi bapckemper; Good advice, and thanks. Unfortunately, no it is a ford Dealer (can I say that here?) Just today I did some color prints of the car, and noticed the first photo (from July) had the front emblem on the car, and the directional rims facing the correct way. But now, a recent photo...
