Replying to: ghandy (Feb 06, 2006 10:51 pm) You're right, there are specific lemon laws that do apply and I'm not taking no for an answer. Once again, the difference with GM and BMW comes down to integrity of the company! Your point addresses one of the main issues that I do have! I will basically have a new car with the engine having been swapped thus substantially affecting the value of my car! Where is the fairness in this? Remember, the car left the factory with the cracked engine block and Chevy quality control has proved to be anything but! Their screw up! Fine, it happens, do the right thing! They refuse. Am I missing something? P.S. Yesterday I spoke with a customer relations manager from GM who told me that they would not be giving me a new car. I'm not giving up, so stay tuned. So far, based on your feedback and that of other people on these board, Porsche, BMW and Honda have done the right thing in similar or LESS serious situations, but GM, knowing that they delivered a SUBSTANTIALLY defective car, have not!!! INTEGRITY!!! A wonder why GM is having the problems that it is! Must love their new slogan - "AMERICAN REVOLUTION"! What a joke! I try to buy and support American products, but shouldn't this relationship be mutual?! I guess not in the eyes of GM! Thanks. Alena |

I picked up my 2006 victory red C6 in Dec. and I've been very saticfied. To me , the new Vette is the perfect mixture of pure perfomance and practicality. I just read the "Urgent C6 Z06" post and was just wondering if any other C6 owners have had any concerns or problems I should be aware of. Thanks On a personal note. Anyone concidering buying the new Porshe Caymen WITHOUT researching the Corvette needs thier head examined by a professional.

I apologize for not stepping in sooner. The lemon law issues and critiques of GM are dragging this discussion off-topic at this point. Those who'd like to continue discussing GM's policies/practices, customer service, and warranty issues will find plenty of takers in the News & Views and Smart Shopper Forums.  Drive on over and see me!

Got to do a couple sessions just under an hour on track in a C6 paddle shifter. For a stick jockey it was not real easy to get down the process but by the second 30 min session I had a couple of 4 to 2 down shifts that were smooth enough to enter a turn in point doing the 80's, brake hard and get the shift done and exit in the low 40's with that amazing 2nd gear pull in the C6. Not good rev matching compared to heel/toe but certainly track capable and lots of fun any place on public roads. I won't be getting rid of the C5 soon. Randy
