DUMP THE BOSE Just finished gutting the terrible Bose system- installed a Pioneer time delay head unit w/ CD & Sat. Radio, Eclipse Amp, MB Quart front components (tweeters in Roof posts) and MB Quart 6.5" in rear. In short the Bose system is over priced and junk. The Bose speakers are...

Actually I bought the car with a brand nre set of Goodyear runflats on it. I"ve heard that from many people (switching the tires ) but since they were new I thought I'd run them out - thinking twice about that latley.

Recently gutted the factory Bose equipment in my C5 and replaced it with a high end Pioneer deck and some great MB Quart components in front (Dynamat in doors) and 6.5's in the back. Sounds great except for that nasty road noise in the back compartment and also what sounds like air noise fron...

I been having a puddle of water under my C5 and today took the panel off from under ther Glove box (access to relays) and noticed that the foam cover from the panel was wet. Also there is a round (4"+/-) metal unit above the panel that has a sponge gasket that seems to be where the water is...

Just got my 1st C5. One problem, directionals occasionally do not work. Dealer says Hazard Light switch needs to be replaced. Not under warranty but him will do labor for free if i pay for switch ($50). Says dashboard must be removed. Is this a common problem ??????????

Hey- just got my 1st Vette- 2000 Black on Black Coupe. Pics to follow. All is great w/ a few small problems: - Directionals on occasion do not work. Dealer said he has to to replace the Hazard switch- which requires removal of the dashboard - any thoughts out there ?? Said he will provide...

Thought that too but rest of the car- exterior, interior, clean engine was beautiful. any issues w/ warm ups - might have not been started for some time.

Just started looking and drove a '93 w/ 47K miles at a Vet dealer. Kinda surprised it drove like a tank (idled rough) & didn't brake as good as i have heard. With only 47K i was expecting better. An thoughts ?????

I am old school, sports car just isn't a true sports car without a stick, but for stop and go traffic the auto would be nice . Glenn :w Thats exactly the way i've been viewing it

OK, here's a question for all- Standard or Auto transmissions ???. To some it can't be a Corvette unless its a standard but in this cell phone, coffee age we live in whats better ??? Any problem years w/ either on C4's ???

Thanks for the info, sounds like Marcels up here (marcelscorvette.com) priced higher w/ the usual dealer benifits. Check out the site shows some nice cars available. Also http://www.prestigecorvettes.com/car.php?CarID=500

B17Crew- REALLY GREAT INFO Thanks a lot

Poughkeepsie isn't that far really, whos the dealer ???

I'm in the Saratoga area. Surprised to hear u sold a C5 for a C4- says a lot about that. Rode in a friends C5 (2004) and got that 'Buick" feeling also once u get past the looks. I'm sure u've heard of Marcel's Corvette shop in Mechanicville ??

Great analogy Love the "Fighter jet" analogy - very true. How much harder or harsher is the ride of a C4 vs. C5 ?????

I know what u mean but this one (Item number: 4576066678) was/is very nice. Like every thing else "location, location, location........ Any idea where u can find out how many convertibles were made in a given year and in a specific color ?????? Thanks again replys have been great

thats a great outlook. I notice u have a 6 speed, any thoughts on Auto vs. Manual on resale ????? Always thought a Corvette or any sports car should be a standard, but w/ todays lifestyle- cell phone, coffee and other distractions I been reconsidering that.

I must respectfully disagree that there is a "season" for the corvette market, as a $10,000 car will still be a $10,000 car whether it's sunny or rainy. I can't imagine a seller dropping the price just because it's cloudy and cold. Thanks for the comments all good, especially the e-bay one...

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy my 1st Corvette - figured fall/early winter would be good times to find a deal in the upstate New York area. Bacisally would like a nice toy to drive on w/e's and look for some increase in value down the road. I've been looking at C4's (1993) but i'm wondering if i'd...
