Mostly I like to drive alone, or at least not in a group, so I hate it when somebody starts using me for a lead car. I feel like it isn't as safe to drive in a group, especially if they close in--blocks my vision and room to maneuver in an emergency. In a Vette though, it's generally easy to...

Badgers Gosh, I feel stupid... I thought the badge was kind of cool till I read all this. Actually, I'm restoring a 1968 Charger RT and it had a Chrysler pentastar badge just about that size on the passenger side only in about the same spot (and yes, it was post-mounted, but was still just...

DSOM pictures I hope these are viewable! Gersh

Sold This 2001 Magnetic Red Coupe is no longer available. We sold it locally for $23,000. Thanks for the interest! Gersh

Capitalism will tell I'm a believer in the free market system, and if it were a good profit opportunity, Corvette would certainly go into right side driver cars, but if not, we definitely don't need any more laws to force them to! But if they did, it wouldn't make them any less Corvettes: it...

Nick-- Thanks for the input. I understand the older cars better, but a lot of the newer computer controlled functions are past me. Do you have any specific ideas about exhausts for Terri's C6 that will improve the sound (louder and deeper) or is Borla a good choice? Thanks again. Gersh

Chris-- Glad to hear it. Congrats! and enjoy. Gersh

I looked at the C6 color poll again recently, and Daytona Sunset Orange Metallic is still way ahead as far as "What color would you choose IF you were buying a new C6?" But the sales figures/ estimates I have heard say the opposite--DSOM is dead last--fewest of all the colors sold. Does this...

Is that advice specific to C6 cars? I put Borla exhausts on my wife's C5 coupe and she loves them for the sound. I never thought about a computer issue, and never had any problems. Now she wants Borlas on her C6... Gersh

David-- Terri says I can send you her phone number as soon as you send her a new Corvette... haha:) Gersh

Good Luck! The early rumors I heard were high price--over 100K, and a supercharger to get maybe 650HP. If this were true, it leaves open the issue about the rest of the car. If Corvette takes a Z06 and puts in a supercharger (maybe a Vortech, like Ford has done), but doesn't modify the rest of...

Over-reacted? A lot of good points... I was pretty ticked off at the time. But I went home and cleaned and looked, and there is either no damage or minimal damage. I re-thought the stupidity possibility also, and they are smart enough to operate gas powered equipment, so I think it's not...

I have had my new Z06 for exactly 3 weeks today. I drive it to work nearly every day, and did on a nice nearly-spring morning today. I park close to the office, and when I looked out about 11:00, there was a landscaper weed-eating just in front of my car--actually one foot away from the front...

My wife just got a new Corvette and her old one is for sale. It is Dark Red with a tan interior and glass top. 42K miles, new tires. It has most of the options, but we bought it used and I'm not sure what all options were available then. It is mechanically perfect, as far as we know. The paint...

There was nothing wrong with the car (except it isn't a Z06). The problem was with the museum staff who had forgotten it...

Nope, wrong, my wife's car was just driven over--no truck. Also, covering the museum expenses is not the same as paying for the museum delivery. And yes, you are right in that it should be included in the price of the car. Calling it a destination charge is bogus. I believe in calling a...

Easy; buy her one too. Gersh

DSOM--Ouch! Well, it looks like my new Z06 is destined for the crapper, judging by the above comments (excepting MsSchroder--thanks very much, Tammy, for the nice comments). Here's how it happened: My salesman called and said "How about an early Christmas present? I just got an opening to...

C6BOB-- You say you don't understand complaints about the destination charge, as if being non-neotiable makes it reasonable... I'm complaining about the destination charge for two reasons-- First--it is too much for the cost of the average delivery--they put 11 Vettes on a truck, so that is...

Not Yellow, sorry My brother and I were in the Corvette museum last week. He is NOT a Corvette lover, so he doesn't have the built in bias a lot of us do, based on cars we had, etc. His opinion was that M. Yellow says "LOOK AT ME" and he didn't like it. I've never had a yellow Vette and I...
