| I'm not big on the top out, to tell the truth. I only have the painted top on mine but we got both on the wife's just recently. I expect we will decide on which to have in when we leave and not take the extra on any extended trips. Winter travel with the glass top turned out to be really nice in the '95, only top it had. Summer on the other hand, don't want to have the glass in when doing mid-day driving, like I said, not big on the sun. | |

Replying to: starrow68 (Jul 30, 2004 8:08 am) " Dual Roof Package Includes removable one-piece body-color roof panel and removable one-piece transparent roof panel. INCLUDES CC3" show I assumed (shame on me) that the targa had become an option. But when I looked at the standard features, it showed it as a targa. That might do it for me. Thanks everyone |

http://www.thecarconnection.com/index.asp?article=7364&sid=18- 4&n=157 the car connection has a so/so review that is mostly a rehash of what's out there before the actual drive reviews. Motor Trend and Car and Driver have both put out performance data in current editions and the C6 Z51 is close to the early reviews of the C5 Z06 which seems about right. |

Replying to: starrow68 (Aug 02, 2004 8:46 am) And I learned from the dealer last weekend, the C6 will cost me approx $15K more than a new C5......now I'll have to wait for a C6 test drive. |

Hope you check out the net compared to local dealers. I'd be interested in the basis of the $15k, seems that coupe base price is almost $1k lower, add similar options and some are more than before, especially Z51, and then add new things like On Star, XM(?) and Nav. That gets pricy but if the current discounts are $10k at local dealers then $15k might be a bit too high. Dealers always want it both ways, don't discount current as much and charge extra premium for the new one. When I can get Coupe, 6sp, Z51 and sport seats/premium package with Bose and polished wheels, like what I have now, for under $50k, I'm in the market too! Be interesting to see how long it take for some to start to sit on the lots with extra markups.

A friend from an ad agency sent me a sneak preview of the new Corvette commercial that's supposed to air later this month during the Olympics. It's the first commercial for the Vette since 1997. Anyway, I have a behind the scenes still photo and clip from the ad on my server at: http://64.49.250.212/images3/C22383_051_800x532.jpg ad clip: http://64.49.250.212/images3/a_boys_dream.mov |
