    Looking for some advise on what C6 to buy

    I don't know how he knew other than I bought the car in August and it was in his dealership from May. He had an extensive personal Vette collection and owned 6 dealerships including Airport Chev where I purchased it. He was/is very well connected and like most vehicle defects those connected...

    Who is the original owner of their 2000 C5

    My wife drives it 2or 3 times a week in the summer months, but as she approaches her mid 70s it isn't as comfortable as her Buick SUV and it has only been out twice this year

    2 questions for my C6 Z06 (parts to buy)

    Looking for some advise on what C6 to buy

    I purchased my 2006 C6 Z new and fortunately from a dealer who was a Corvette enthusiast (Bill Wallace) who did the valve/head repairs before he let me take it home. In the 20 years I have owned it, I have only replaced the battery once, two years ago. It still wears it's original tires...

    You in this category? Lol.

    I bought my first Vette in 1986 when I was 36 and have had at least one every year since. Up until the C8 the average age of a Vette buyer was late 40s, I expect for the reasons mentioned above, family grown and more disposable income, however the C8 introduction seemed to pique the interest of...

    C8 Z06 Insurance Cost

    I had the TAG tracker installed in my Denali last year for $400 at the local Speedy Autoglass. They hid 14 very tiny sensors in 14 different locations in my truck, and etched TAG on my windows. They claim a thief won't spend the amount of time it would take to locate all 14 and is therefore...
