    What gives - no wave!

    A new mindset and plain stupidity!!!!! You will see new vette owners drive by without a clue about the wave and get used to it. But lately it's more then new owners and that's what bothers me. Last year at Carlisle we passed a group of people that were sitting under a tent that looked like a...

    Steering column lock????????

    My buddy is finally getting GM's attention! Hi He just got off the phone with GM and it seems that it's going to be worked out at least over the phone. He will be meeting with a GM rep at his local dealership. Is there anything that he has to know so that they don't try a short cut...

    Steering column lock????????

    HI Since my 02 never had this problem l never followed this problem except remembering that you can add a steering lock bypass. My friend has a 98 and has had this problem 3 times, this past weekend was the third time. I believe he had it orig fixed by his dealer and when the warranty was...

    Blue Devil in a Red Dress

    Mind Boggling for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This weekend my cousin took me for a run in his C6 Z06 and all that l can say was it was awesome. It made my C5 feel like a Yugo! In fact it made me a little nervous but it was saome rush! I can't wait to get into the Blue Devil! The only problem is...

    C5 price's moving up???

    Hi I have been noticing that the price's of C5's have been moving up or at least holding their value recently. Yes l am aware that this is the prime time but C5's that have low mileage (Under 20,000 miles) no matter what year seem to be falling into this area. It doesn't seem to matter if...

    Are C4 prices still falling or rising yet?

    Only the good will have a worth!!!!!!!! Keep one thing in mind no matter what year we are talking about a low mileage cream puff will always have a worth. When altering a stock vette do it for yourself not the next guy because by then it will lower the price a great deal. If you have to...

    Are C4 prices still falling or rising yet?

    The price for the ZR1 is about right! This vette was never intended to be driven but only shown. It would look good in a 10 car garage that needed a bay to be filled real cheap. Keep in mind that a lot of the BJ winners are private people who collect with a lot of money. And then there are...

    C6 Didn't Wave

    Their mind is going ! Hi While the average age of C6 buyers l'm sure is 60 yrs plus and being that it's their first vette you have to cut them some slack. Also at their age their eye sight is waning along with their mind. So if they don't wave just think that someday you will be in their...

    Keeping your Vette Clean

    As a group we are sooo anal !!!!!!!!!! The best way to keep a vette clean is keep it in a garage covered period. But for the rest of us all that our vette needs is a good wax and microdenier towels. But it is known that some products work better on some colors better then other. alan:beer

    "New" 1985 coupe for sale

    I have seen this before ???? For that kind of money l would rather own a high mileage C5 97. While it's a nice vette, if it's your only one then l would pass. Alan:beer

    Are C4 prices still falling or rising yet?

    C4 Prices Keep in mind that the difference in price between a 97/98 c5 and a reg LT1 C4 is within $5000 for sure. The LT4 engine option and the GS are the only C4's besides the ZR-1 that are worth their salt. The 96 commerative edition or whatever they called them without the LT4 engine isn't...

    In Jail or Not in Jail? That is the Question

    Not a bit impressed with SS In my opinion it's still a plain old Z-06. I was expecting a lot more to be honest with you. Besides the performance factor it's just OK. GM should be talking with Callaway about putting on a new nose for sure, I wouldn't spend that kind of money for a vette:W...

    never liked the C4 all that much, so what happened to me?

    The C4 is a real neat vette! From the 88 model year until 91 it was a keeper and from 92-96 in my eyes was a super car. That was until the C5 came out! When l sold my 96 l was going to get a C6 but l just hated the nose. So l went back to the C5 and now l'm thrilled. And even better putting...

    Keeping your Vette Clean

    ????????????????????? I am sure a lot of your fellow anal :boogie vette lovers will chime in. Keep it covered even if you garage it. Don't take it out unless there is a 100% chance of no rain. Keep a Calif duster handy. Use the Zaino system and only hand wash it with micro denier towels and...

    0-60 times

    Hi I found this on the National Corvette Museum site and what it really said is that with the 2001 model year an auto coupe with the perf rear is as quick as a 2000 with a 6 spd. 2001 Corvette Coupe/Convertible Acceleration Trans Axle 0-60 MPH 1/4 Mile Improvement A4 2.73 4.90 Sec 13.65 Sec...

    0-60 times

    Thanks For some reason l thought that l read that the published 0-60 times was approx 5.7 sec's. The only reason that l was questioning this is because it seems no matter what new vehicle that is coming out is capable of 0-60 times in the low 6 sec's.;shrug So far l have only lost to...
