Soft Ride option

[Silverman]

I know this fourm is attented by performance (more) oriented folks, but I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the soft ride option that was available for 2005 C6's? The 2006 doesn't seem to offer this.

I'm guessing it was a smaller anti-role bar and maybe softer springs and could be added aftermarket... but if someone has experience with this feature, I'd sure like to hear from them. I don't expect there's a lot of demand for softer riding C6's but some 1200 folks ordered this on their 2005's...

Thanks,

Silverman

I'm not sure what you mean by 'soft ride' option.

There are 3 suspension options that I'm aware of:
base,
F55 MagRide and
Z51.

MagRide gives you a little of both worlds as the shocks have 2 settings - Tour and Sport. In tour, it's nicer than the base suspension IMO and in Sport, it's closer to the Z51 settings but with the base springs and roll bars.

I'm getting MagRide on my 06. I have it on my 03 and I really love it.

Thanks Tuna,

After reading your post I went back and reviewed my source. Chevrolet calls the base suspension the FE1 and it's description is "soft ride suspension". 12,988 people selected this suspension in 2005, not "some 1200' as I'd stated on my fi
