So please give us an honest report on the difference between you 02 car and the new one.

I have an 02 convertable with an automatic and I am on the fence about replacing it with a new C6. I thought the 02 wuld be a car i would have forever but with all the new bells and whistle the new one has I may want to upgrade.

Best of luck with the new car and enjoy

I really loved my "02" however I had more of the common problems with the "02" than my "99" Fuel gauge, battery, door harness, steering lock etc. The "05" is one of the last one's off the line so hopefully some of the early production bugs are fixed. To be honest I wasn't too fond of the new design but it grew on me. If I get the final paper work done I hope to pick her up on Sat.
I'll report after the drive home from Atlantic City and my vacation in Montauk next week.
Thanks for the good luck from all.

Too funny thats where I got my car from and my salesman name was Harry Boyer.

Me personally hated the new look but the more I see of it the more I love it.

Again let us know what you think

Gratz on the new addition!!!

 

[Joe Vette]

Well I took delivery last Friday. WOW! Funny how when you get a new car the combination of excitement and nerves makes it more difficult to drive. Ha. GM certainly did a fantastic job. Tighter than the C5. More responsive and predictable. Loving the Lemans Blue color. Oh and did I mention that new car smell? I'm still reaching for a door handle and key at times but that will pass.
Taking it fairly easy for the first couple of hundred miles and then......well you know.
Big thanks to Dave Brown at Kerbeck in Atlantic City. They make the purchasing process a breeze.
Living very large at the moment. Best to all.

Congrats!! Gotta love a blue Vette.

 

[Gorgon]

Would love to see some pics when you get a chance.

 

[Pseudomind]

Congrats

There are some things I like, The headlghts do not bother me as much as the front grill in toto. Of course it may have been the model and color, bronze with tan interior convertible.

I believe I am a dedicated hardtop or coupe fan.

Anyway congrats again

 

[Joe Vette]

I can get over the lights and the grill which I like. It's that damn front plate I'm going to have to put on the nose that really twists me. Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!

 

[Pseudomind]

Now that is a valid point

And I can only agree, the front plate.
