    C4 vs C5 performance

    I did not intend to INSULT anyone. All I was doing is pointing out what anyone can see for themselves at our local car shows and I was being kind concerning some owners physical conditions. The C5/C6 series does represent different technology and new technology is great until it starts...

    ZR1 Comes in 6th Place

    I have yet to get an opportunity to drive a ZR1 but based on the specs and cars with similar power curves, considering the cars that Pobst is used to driving ( A Volvo I believe) I can see where the torque of the ZR1 would be intimidating and why he was more comfortable in the Audi. The torque...

    C4 vs C5 performance

    The C4 was built like a race car. You can change the front shocks or brakes in a suit and not get very dirty. You can add fluids without worrying about dripping on the paint surfaces. The C5 and C6 seems built for those who take their car to someone else to work on and have deep pockets to do...

    Help! Seat Upholstery and Control

    I have checked Corvette Central and Eklers but find there prices a bit high. I had two bucket seats for one of my classic cars done in a high quality leather several years ago and the upholstery and labor did not cost me what these people want for just the kit which does does not include...

    Alternative to a Corvette - the Avanti

    In another post someone mentions the Studebaker museum in Indiana. This reminded me of a trip I made to that museum with the Avanti club many years ago. They allowed me to make that trip as a one day member of their club because at the time I was driving a 66 Corvette Roadster which had much...

    south bend , ind

    That is what I like about this board, the community of friends willing to assist those who are coming into their state. How's the rain fall this year in South Bend. I'm a former South Chicago Suburb resident who had friends in South Bend many years ago. Spent some time roaming around there...

    discount tire direct

    I just bought a set of the Nitto 555 Extreme tires for my C4 from Discount Tire here in Scottsdale on Wednesday. I got the pricing off their web site which was about $774 out the door including taxes etc. or something like that. I went into the store and told the manager that if he could get...

    the decline of the C4

    That has been going on for years. A Arizona car will almost always bring a premium because it has not been in the rain or snow and is usually kept out of the sun by the owner. It will usually have higher miles because most of the driving is on freeways and will sell for 10-20% more than a east...

    the decline of the C4

    I was in sales at that time for Ray Korte Chevy in Scottsdale, AZ. when the C5's came out. I sold one 97 for cash. At the time it was prestige to sell a new Vette. A mom and dad bought it for their son who had some disabilities as a graduation present. This came about because someone who had...

    C5 Oil change simplified

    Yep! Yep! and rightly so! On my other cars, 94 Vette, 55 Chevy etc. I put a jack stand under the frame and drop the load onto the jack stand. There did not seem to be sufficient room for that under the C5 without potential of doing panel damage. Anyway it was easy, which may suite others...

    C5 Oil change simplified

    Only once in my life have I ever paid someone to change the oil in any of my cars and that had to do with being on the road away from home. I preparation of doing the oil change on my C5, I got on the boards and read all the procedures related to changing oil in the C5 specifically the ideas...

    Question: To Wing or not to Wing??

    I think the look is good however remember that the more agressive the car looks and sounds the more attention it gets from the COPS. As such, I have always gone for the sleeper theme. Walk softly but carry a BIG stick!! If you keep the wing, which I think looks good on your car, I would make...

    the decline of the C4

    C4 verses C5 Values Personally I don’t believe there was as big a change between the C4 and C5 as there was between the C3 and the C4. Remember that the C3 was basically a C2 which was a late 1950’s design. The C4 launched the Vette into the 21st century. As I see it, the big difference...
