Oh come on guys, there are Vettes in Buffalo, NY. The snow in Denver sticks around for a couple days, not much more, if my experience in Colorado Springs is any thing to credit. Sure you don't want to drive it in deep snow or icy conditions but you can always figure out a solution with a little creativity. Go to rent a wreak when ever there is a big storm inbound. The Vette is just too much fun to pass up!

Oh go buy the Vette - looks like us warm climate guys got out voted. Rent a wreck and buy a Vette. Hey a new slogan for GM. - THE LAST C4

My '96 Vet temp gauge went to 261 F yesterday with outside temp at 92 F.
Recently flushed the radiator, cleaned the intake and replaced the sensor. Still running very hot.
Any suggestions?

If that is the coolant temp, I'd get a mechanic to take a look. My C5 runs at 196 for the coolant even if the oil temp is 180 on the street, I have an oil cooler, or even up to 260's on the track. Something is blocking flow ...

Thanks,
yes, it's coolant temp. I had 3 mechanics look at it and no luck.

Good Deal or Not? by glhendr1

I've been looking for a 05 C6 for a while, several months, and finally got a dealer to agree to order one with the option and color combo for $2500 off MSRP. I've been waiting for almost two month now and my car is suppose to be here by the end of the month. I know the 06 model is due out any day now but the based price is at least 65k MSRP. Am I getting a good deal with the C6? No one else would agree to cut the price more than 1500. I'm afraid if I don't get this car now I won't be able to get it new, with only the options I prefer, once the 06 start rolling off the lot.

Sounds like a great deal right now. My tracking on the web says even some
of the big intranet dealers are not going to $2500 off. The reason the Vette is
not on the Employee Buying deal is that it is in demand. Enjoy the car and
let us see a pic when you get it.

I don't think the '06 C6 will sticker for much more than the '05. ($2-400?)
The 65k # you mention will be the base price of the new Z06 which will have a ton more expensive content...forged crank, dry sump, 6/4 piston fronts/rears...the list is long.
Look at it this way...you've shopped hard and 2500 off is the best you can do. Don't second guess yourself, just enjoy the ride!
