    Will You Be In Line...

    Like Catbert I also have had two first year Corvettes with no issues at all. :D I still have the 2005 and it has been flawless. :thumb Haven't even had to take the car back for the roof recall. But I do have some reservations about the first year C7 based on the completely new engine, the...

    Will there be more than a passing resemblance????

    Wonder how closely the new C7 and the new Ferrari will resemble each other? The first F12berlinetta to be delivered in the U.S. was sold for $1.125 million at auction on Nov. 17, 2012 at a Ferrari event in Austin, Texas, during the Formula 1 US Grand Prix weekend.

    1999/2000 C5 FRC "The Hardtop For Hardcores"

    Several weeks ago Hib Halverson shared an interesting story with me concerning the birth of the C5 Corvette and more specifically the FRC which I believe most Corvette enthusiasts would find interesting. I asked Rob to resurrect Hib’s article so all forum members could enjoy it. Few of us have...

    Remember those Ads??

    ;LOL I know what you mean - one of the cars I had was a 1977 442 with the 350. Pretty car but couldn't get out of its own way! Having had a 1970 442 which was a rally quick car, seemed like it was sacreligous to put 442 on that 77! :mad I never could believe how we went from absolutely...

    Remember those Ads??

    They were cool. :cool!: A friend of mine had one with a 427 4 speed. It was a fast car. It was light yellow black interior. He'd go theough a set of tires every two months!!!

    Remember those Ads??

    Those were cool. Here's another that I remember liking! And BTW don't you think "on the move" is better than "runs deep"?

    Price appreciation of C5's?

    I do admit that I am the FRC's Number One Fan. :BOW;worship However that does not taint my view :eyerole :m

    Price appreciation of C5's?

    I agree with most of the answers. Tim was on target. You just don't buy a C5 with visions of appreciation. You buy them to drive and enjoy! Basically we will not see any significant appreciation in our lifetimes (unless you are under 30 and even then it is debatable). Catbert is right on with...

    Chevy delays verdict on 'Runs Deep' tag line

    I think the ad works - for the truck division. But overall I liked "Heartbeat of America" better!

    Which car did you enjoy the most

    I hear ya on that. :BOW I bow down over those kind of memories. I think though that the closest I got to that was when an old lady mooned me :booty! Nowadays that wouldn't even be bad. If you could guarantee an experience like you had in your 65 i think i'd write the check today for the new...

    Ever wonder whether the C5 or C6 is faster?

    If you have ever wondered whether the C5 or C6 was faster and which car was better on a road course...then by all means do not ask these two drivers!!!:crazy This was on Jalopnik and it is pretty clear both of these idiots need to go to drivers school!:Steer Looks like neither one of these guys...

    Good article. To the point and not muddied by our ramblings!:thumb

    Which car did you enjoy the most

    Question for you - I already have a C6 2005, do you think that the GS is that much better? I have never driven the GS but I am looking at a new Carlisle Blue 2012. What's your thoughts?

    What Colors Will Be Offered on the New C7 VOTE

    It's election year and hopefully we are in the habit of voting. We just completed the poll on the "Camaro-esque rear lights". In that poll 18 forum users said they either "disliked" or "hated" the rumored rear design of the "Camaro-esque" lights on the new C7, while 5 were "indifferent" to the...

    The Worst Car Colors Ever Offered

    Does that question pertain only to vettes or all cars? If it pertains to all cars I admit that I used to own a :pukeGremlin that for the lack of a better descriptive word can only be described as BABY SH-T BROWN! :chuckle

    Which car did you enjoy the most

    I was speaking to another Corvette owner who was telling me the history of his car, while we sipped our coffee at an early morning gathering of Corvettes & Caffeine a few Saturdays ago. He told me that he purchased his Atomic Orange C6 from someone in New Mexico with only a few thousand miles...
