    My new C-6

    I just picked up 2008 C-6 ZHZ. I got a great deal from my dealer. It has 89K miles and looks and runs great. It had to be special to get me to sell my 96 Purple C-4 with the LT4 motor

    Question: If You Were Chevrolet, How Would You Attract Younger Buyers To The Corvette?

    Chevy needs to drop the price into the40's for a base coupe. There has to be a way to remove some expensive parts maybe cloth or vinyl seats, less expensive seats and wheels, and remove some other parts that run up the base prices. Like Plymouth did originally with the road runner which was a...

    1st Road trip

    I agree my 96 was great on a long trip. I drove 1100 miles straight just stopping for gas and personal breaks. The car performed flawlessly at one point averaging over 30 mpg over a 300 mile stretch and 27.8 for the whole trip. I was more comfortable than in my 2010 Equinox LTZ. People don't...

    LT4 Torn

    I wish I could keep both but alas that is not to be I need the trade value of the 96 to keep the payments manageable. Don't get me wrong I like the 09 its fast comfortable much easier ingress and egress and the dealer gives lifetime engine and trans warranty if serviced there. I just had to...

    LT4 Torn

    Im not worried about the speed the 09 is fast but its so quiet. I do like the fact that the dealer here warranties the drivetrain for life( internal parts). Plus my wife can drive the 09 more since its automatic she doesn't like the 6speed manual in the 96. She could drive the vette to work and...

    LT4 Torn

    I have a 96 LT4 purple coupe. I love this car it has 105k miles. My wife saw a yellow 2009 base coupe with 14k miles and auto. Its nice but nothing like the LT4. The price is 35k. Its quiet fast beautiful car. I just don't know if I want to spend the money and give up the rawness of the C4 for...

    LT4 96 LT-4 died

    Went to start my car the other day and all it would do is turn over, no fire. I checked all connections and everything seemed fine. Finally had it towed to the dealer. The ECM was getting power but none coming out. So it was replaced. The new one quit . They went through all the grounds and...

    Thieves steal collector Corvette

    From what I heard whoever took the car drove it hard. The back tires had nothing left to them. Fortunately that appears to be the only damage other than some really hard miles

    Video: Chasing 200 mph in a Corvette ZR1 - Epic Drives Episode 3

    Wow, I would love to try that. The fastest I have been is about 140 but only for a very short time. The vette sounded like a jet going by. These guys were talking a driving just like they were out for Sunday drive I need to win the lottery to get one.

    What was wrong with the Vettes?

    I don't think that Corvettes weren't good It was more that the competition improved that much. Of course the weather and having the right tire for the conditions could have caused some problems

    Only one horn working.

    One more thing any replacement horn is not a direct plug in, even the GM horn will need to have wires cut and spliced in

    Only one horn working.

    I had the same problem, only one horn working. I found a replacement horn cheap one, my mistake it worked for 1 beep then both horns quit. I took it to the dealers and both horns were bad, the dealer replaced with GM horns not cheap $75 a piece but at least I can be heard now
