    Suspension Questions -- Which one to order.

    I've been reading this stuff and wondering how come my c6 Z51 in the freezing weather has been fine for me. Granted it hasn't been deep snow just a few inches but cold and I'm not having any issues getting around in my vette.. The F55 is probably a great setup. Hell its in the NEW ZR1 ...

    Suspension Questions -- Which one to order.

    The F55 is cool. A technological wonder! Still I am retired as well. I chose the Z51 suspension and its amazing. Thats the one I would recommend. Its smooth and luxurious without a doubt. Even my wife is thrilled driving in this new Z51 C6.. If your still undecided? Try all three...

    Ruthless Pursuit of Power: 2008 Edition: Our In-Depth Look at the 2008 Corvette LS3

    I hate to say this but the 2008 C6 Z51 convertible is so capable..I dont really see it happening.. Believe it or not....creating a convertible out of a supercar often happens when sales start to stall.. I don't see that happening to the ZR1 anytime soon.. (stalled sales might happen to the...

    Corvette holds its ground

    ;LOL You had me laughing.. I'm not driving a camry either! Now that new Malibu is a dam fine looking four door front wheel drive competitor to the Japanese "wundercraps" GM's on a roll. Its products are better than ever.. I really have the AWD CTS to travel the snow which it does...

    Corvette holds its ground

    Thanks for the heads up guys. I didn't realize there was that big a difference between the c6 Z51 and c6 non z51 tires.. Would you consider the non z51 runflats decent in the snow? or would you suggest dedicated snow tires and rims for those with z51 ? I don't really travel that much...

    Corvette holds its ground

    Thanks for sharing the article. I think it was a very very fair review ... If the guy wanted to do snow time... he should consider snow tires? Of course 3 inches of snow on the road is the limit but I hear guys who throw snow tires can manage quite well... considering its a 190mph sports...

    Price of the 2009 ZR-1

    GM could get whatever they ask for the low volume initial run .. I'll take a guess and say 99,999 base price... Just so they can represent value for what the buyer recieves..as a halo statement to the entire Chevy brand... Considering it will smoke or run with a half million dollar...

    $ over dealer invoice

    I just bought a 2008 C6 Black Coupe with Z51 and NPP exhaust for 44500 .. I thought it was a square deal out the door plus tax and registration.. I think invoice was within a thousand dollars if I took a guess.. Cars worth every penny! What a blast. Glad I pulled the trigger..
