    Wow, what a car!

    More fun than humans... It's a keeper! Enjoy the ride :D . The C5 was great and the C6 is even better. It's been a warm winter in Wisconsin and I've had the vette out every chance I get. Unfortunately, the snow finally hit us this weekend so I am going thru withdrawels. Maybe global warming...

    Mystery light on C6 -- Orange Light Behind Visor??

    En effet! Indeed it is. I wish it were just a tad brighter; adjustable perhaps?

    06 Z06, how much$?

    Matt Kensith Z06 Seems a little high for a 2006. Ballweg Chevrolet in Middleton WI is selling a used red Z06 that Matt Kenseth bought for his dad. My sales guy called me and said they reduced the price to $67,800, and it either it sells or goes to the wholesaler. I think it has 4500 miles...

    Hi Folks, '05 Question, Mirror whacky!

    I wouldn't think it should come on by itself. According to the Onstar manual it's the emergency button which would normally have to be pushed in order to activate. The manual says: Emergency Button Push this button to send a priority call to an OnStar Advisor. You will hear a chime followed by...

    Saved from the freezing rain.

    You are not alone! For those of us that "bought to drive em," I think we all struggle with the desire to maintain our vettes in pristine condition against the reality that we can never achieve that state of perfection (damned dump trucks :mad; spewing their stones and pebbles like a firestorm...

    Rumor Mill: V6 Corvette is Coming

    Stay with what works. When they bring the Camaro back, let it have the V6. Why mess with the Corvette, which remains a profitable and iconic star in the GM fleet? Also, anyone know why the vette V8 designers go with 2 valves per cylinder (pushrod) instead of 4 (OHC)?? ;shrug Dave

    Borla or B&B?? Expert advice please

    Congrats! Glad the Stinger exhaust is working out for you :upthumbs. I think I'll try it after running with the B&B bullet w/PRT for awhile. Kinda' like tuning a fine instrument... :eyerole. Dave

    Hello From New Member in Central Alabama

    And "Hello!" from snowy Wisconsin. It's only about 15 degreees out today, but we've got a heat wave coming tomorrow: up to 29 degress they say, and 100% sunshine. So, out comes Silverstreak II. It's been over a week since we've been out and I'm having withdrawels... Welcome aboard! :w Dave

    Traded in my '02 for an '06

    I traded my 2002 C5 earlier this year as well, and am REALLY happy with the C6 :upthumbs. The C5 was great, and the C6 is even better :_rock . Dave

    Rodent Protection

    Only bad experience! I swear a rodent got into my old C5 somewhere and proceeded to rot. For quite awhile after uncovering it in spring, every time I fired it up a horrendous dead animal stench came out of the air vents. The wife said I should put bags of moth balls underneath the car...

    Mystery light on C6 -- Orange Light Behind Visor??

    Time to trade? Not sure about the Voice Recognition, but if you like the steering wheel mounted radio controls, get thee to the Chevy dealer and order up a 2007 with the 3LT trim package. You'll be good to go :upthumbs . Dave

    Mystery light on C6 -- Orange Light Behind Visor??

    A nice touch indeed, and reminiscent of BMW, who is fond of bathing the cockpit in a redish/orange glow.

    Mystery light on C6 -- Orange Light Behind Visor??

    Sounds right. Provides just a hint of low level light to illuminate the shift area in the C6. Before the C6, I replaced the stock mirror in my C5 with an aftermarket that had an integrated thermometer and compass, then noticed that it didn't have the orange LED illuminating the shifter...

    Borla or B&B?? Expert advice please

    What a crap shoot! Buying exhaust is kinda like buying a house or car. You can't really know if you're going to like it until you've tried it;shrug . Sorry to hear that the Borla didn't work out for you :( . In my case I had to back off from too aggessive. It's interesting that when I was...

    Borla or B&B?? Expert advice please

    Hybrid BB Bullet Put the Bullet on my 07 coupe. Sounded cool out on the highway but way TOO loud for city driving, i.e. interior drone and throttle down burble. Called BB and they recommended adding the center section muffler, which is an Xpipe and resonators. Takes the "edge" off the...

    I am a "Nervous Wreck"....

    Enjoy! Sounds awesome! I must admit a fondness for Mustangs as well ;) : 67 coupe and 68 fastback with the 289, and a 97 cobra, heavilly modified to kick arse. Last spring I stopped by the local Ford store to ask about the Shelby. They told me it was a limited production and was going to be...

    I am a "Nervous Wreck"....

    What the heck -- it's only stuff! I traded my 2002 MT coupe for a 2005 MT coupe in March of 2005, agonized over it, but much preferred the C6 over the C5. Until the battery went dead a couple of times. So, after grousing to the salesperson, he called me in June and said they would make me a...
