Thanks. There is definately an appeal to owning this kind of car at an early age. I always wondered what it would be like to own a great automobile like this, and now i know. Its not a rare car like a Lamborghini, but it definately fits the bill for those of us who will never see that kind of...

Bought my first Vette shortly after my 22nd birthday, which was in september 2006. It might not be NEW, but its still a vette and i decided that i wasnt waiting till i was old to get one. I can delay travelling the world, at least for a few years :)

I can certainly accept that a person my age will be charged that much, it makes sense. I can say that i am a prudent driver, but i understand their point here. However, i cant begin to enumerate the stories i hear about horrible service, ridiculous excuses, and even more ridiculous prices. As...

I installed a KN filter the other day and i was HORRIFIED at how dirty my stock filter was. I was more than happy to install the filter despite the fact that the gasket they sent with it was hell to install because it was folded in half and refused to stay in place when i attempted to stick it...

Up here i pay 270CAD/month for my z06, which i consider pretty good. My bank would have me paying around 400, luckily the company im with seems to specialise in good prices for younger drivers. My record is perfect and i intend it to stay that way, but im still worried ill get one of those...

Hopefully ill get around to buying some Borlas. Ill definately pull a few minor mods like and intake coupler and filter. A buffing by the dealer due to some #$%$ backing into my car will also have to be done as soon as possible.

Im not big on the rear end, it looks like it was chopped off, too angular when compared to the front if you ask me. Its a nice car but i find myself reminded of certain Japanese makes. Maybe they could go back to a Stingray kind of design. I tend to think that the C6 is one of those stopgap...

My parents seem to prefer calling my Z an obsession. They dont understand why i clean it constantly, like it was some kind of Sedan that i could drag through dirt every day and clean only once every 2 years. People just dont understand, but we all know that theres nothing wrong with us...

Good points, and very entertaining. :upthumbs

Are the Stingers really that different than stock? I dont want a Pacecar system but i want something that will definately growl more than the stock. I hope i dont end up spending a stack on something that is only slightly louder.

Awesome. I remember buying my Vette shortly after my 22nd birthday. Most of the dealers and a few mechanics were shocked that a guy my age was buying this. I wont forget their wide eyes. You never forget that time you first buy it, and now you can say that you own a Corvette. :upthumbs

Sell whatever you need to, but not the car. You will probably regret it. I would never sell my C5 because id probably just buy another expensive car with the money. In your case, i suppose if you sold the car, it might just go towards buying another C3 somewhere down the line, because its...

Those black wheels are pretty nice, but they only seem to work on black and perhaps EB, depending what kind of trim you have. The black tint doesnt hurt either. I know i wouldnt add black wheels to my car. With chrome badges and lettering already there, 3 colours becomes too much. I think id...

Snow isnt the main problem although it is a significant issue. I think any Vette owner is more concerned about all that salt that gets into the cracks and is impossible to spot and clean. Those who have not seen the effects of winter on cars would be terrorised upon seeing cars that are...

I Wonder how well my 02 Z would fare, i suppose not too well, but i dont think id have the jewels or the skill to take my car to a track. Im a Lambo man myself so seeing a Ferrari lose is... well thats not important. Im curious to see how a Murcielago would perform against a Z like that, maybe...

A glass top coupe might give you the best of both worlds.

I dont mean to hijack the thread, but does anybody know how much a chroming for my wheels might cost? Some guy told me i should consider it because it could be cheaper than buying brand new wheels. Right now i have stock 2002 z06 rims but im definately thinking chrome by summer, EB just looks...

Its been around -5 to -10F around here these days. Cold doesnt bother me nearly as much as the salt that we dump all over the streets. Until the trucks sweep it away along with the sand and whatever else is in there, i wont take out the vette.

Does anyone know if i should avoid using an orbital buffer to wax my car? Doing it by hand does take a long time, i dont really mind that so much just as long as i dont have to do it every 2 weeks. Im looking at various products but it seems the auto store doesnt quite have that much selection.

Thanks guys. Ill start her up today to see if its still giving me the same chirp, these problems seem to go away as fast as they come around. Im not too familiar with the engine although everything seems laid-out well enough, maybe i wont have problems finding the offender. If i cant...
