I have never experienced anything like what you are describing – nor have I read about anything similar, and I have monitored the largest “Corvette-focused” forum for over 3 years. Good luck, and please post the resolution? Regarding the noisy roof – there is a TSB: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=1554872&highlight=roof+tsb But I ... Read More...

Chevrolet Corvette Swaybar Problem

2007 Corvette "sway bar issue"

Written by: smariel on Feb 03, 2008 11:17 AM

I drive a 2007 Corvette convertible which just rolled over to 13k miles. I am having continuing issues with what my service rep (who is a friend) calls the 'sway bars'. I put it in the shop months ago for a rattling type noise that I thought was then coming from the driver side front end. At that time they felt the noise was from the rear 'sway bar'. During that service ... Read More...

I own a 2002 Dodge Viper and I feel the Viper sometimes never gets the credit it deserves and this article does it justice. It is a super mean car that is not real friendly but will get your adrenaline flowing. One thing that I noticed which actually can be considered flattery is the door to front end profile of the 2003 and up Vipers (changed the body style in 2003) was ... Read More...

In the interests of accuracy, our region of the Viper Club sponsors an annual dyno day for many of our owners. HP and TQ numbers vary so much. I would like to know why the tests rely on 'published' numbers - instead of doing their own tests. Trust - but Verify !!! Let's see the REAL numbers. RWHP.. and RWTQ. 2000 GTS owner. Read More...

Replying to: pmc4 (Dec 07, 2007 8:52 pm) "The V6 Camry gets 19 MPG city, whereas the Chevy Tahoe hybrid gets 21 MPG city." Apples to oranges. The Tahoe is a truck that uses engine/fuel management devices that are not acceptable in a mass-market family sedan. You claimed that GM has superior hybrid technology, then why didn't they use it in the Malibu? I proved you ... Read More...

Only when Porsche and Ferrari develop their own cheap plastic interiors, notchy shifters, numb steering, and leaf-spring suspensions can they cease envying the exalted Chevrolet. Well put. To each his own though. Sometimes people are ledgends in their own mind ;) This debate is not likely ... Read More...

( Largetst volume Corvette dealer in the S.E. ) Though the symptoms have started to re-appear. ... Read More...

my C6 A6 07 @ 1 year...

Written by: rayainsw on Nov 06, 2007 07:46 AM

Today is the 1 year point, and just over 15,500 miles of Daily Driver Duty + a couple of longer “out of town” trips in my C6. So, I decided to share the experience and my expectations of the next year of C6 driving here. Car: 2007 C6 Coupe, 3LT, A6, ‘Base Suspension’. Use: 75+ percent = commuting in & out of Mid-Town HotLanta. The rest has been primarily the typical errand ... Read More...
