I have owned a corvette for the past 14 years. Mostly all convertibles. Chev. has out done theirselves with the C5. This one is my 3rd (C5) and they just keep getting better. One noticable upgrade was the eletromagnetic steering option. I cannot wait for the new C6 to hit the market. I will be the first in line!

My 2nd Vette

My first Vette (which I still own) is a 1980L82 Coupe. The improvements in the C5 are stunning. I still drive my L82, and frankly it get the most looks and comments, however, the C5 is by far the better engeneered. The heads up display, memory package, active handling, power, and 30 mpg, make it an auto enthusiest purr.

Purchased the LeMans CE Z16; this vehicle is everything I thought it would/could be. Awsome handling and blistering speed. Body fit and finish is excellent. Road noise is on the high side but what can you expect from the 35 series tires and it is a sports car, not a tourer although I wouldn't mind taking it on long trips. Very comfortable seats; driving position is excellent. This car can go directly from the show room to the track.

This is the best car you can buy under $100,000. Other cars may be faster, others may get better fuel economy and some may look better. But nothing on the road does everything as well as the Corvette/Z06.

The car has only one cup holder that is too little and not deep enough. The windshield control is on a lever on the wrong side of steering wheel. The mufflers both rattle, like a model T ,and there is no fix for it. The right door rattles. Right window leaks in car wash. Most of time takes 2 trys to start it.

This being my 10th Corvette, and knowing about all there is to know about the car, I can honestly say this one is by far the best on yet. Comfort and driveability are great. My last one, a 1993 Anniversary edition had more power, but not even close in comfort. I love this car, the best one yet.

I found my chevy corvette the fun-ist car I ever drove. Most other cars it took me a few days to get use to how it drove but the corvette I was comfortable in it after an hour. acceration was excellent and the power was wonderful.Just the feel of owning one will make your ego and confidence soar. You will get a surprisingly excellent MPG for a V8 engine wih normal driving

No problems in first 3500 miles, excellent fuel economy and performance. Looks great, but of course I had to dress up the interior, add a cupholder, needs more electric outlets for phone, radar detector, etc., needed more sound proofing in rear to isolate the trunk and convertible top area. Did some performance enhancements also. Spent another $2,500.00 on aftermarket stuff.

This is one fine machine. Soon after purchase, me and my wife left Sacramento and drove to Las Vegas, NV. The ride was great, especially with the magnetic ride control suspension. The seat was very comfortable, the climate control system and power from the 5.7L V8 was incredible during our trip! Gas mileage is superb for a V8 350hp engine! Hats off to Folsom Chevrolet, hats off to GM and most important I thank the Lord for allowing me to have such a fine, well built machine!

In the first two weeks of ownership, I am happier with each passing day. The Z06 is an incredible package, offering mind-boggling performancee in an easy- to-live with vehicle. The engine is so flexible that even SoCal freeway congestion is not difficult to cope with.

Very easy to drive and handle. The power (350+hp) to gas milage (30mpg) is totally mindblowing. The monitoring system is a great without the complexity like in other vehicle(very user friendly). Love the controls on the doors-clearly visible at night and sealed as to not get a debris in the switch areas (easy to keep clean w/o damaging the controls). Love it!!!

Bought a new '04 Corvette in July. Have over 5,000 trouble free miles on it. Insurance is cheaper than on the '02 Mustang GT that I traded. Best vehicle I have ever owned, and the most fun to drive. Thanks GM for making a quality USA built machine.

This vehicle (LeMans Z-16) has incredible torque and cornering stability. It is performance beyond belief. You just have to drive one to appreciate the performance value for the cost. Nothing compares to if for torque per dollar spent.

Unbelievable fun. The 2004 Corvette convertible is an uncompromising combination of power, handling, comfort, sound, and looks. The build quality is exceptional surpassing any Japanese or European model. This car is built for speed and handling but there is an added bonus of unquestionable good looks. There is a great deal of thought in this last version of the C5 with minor improvements throughout. You cant buy a better car for the money. Unlike other cars in its class the corvette can be used as a daily driver. The ride quality with the selective magnetic ride control makes a big difference over earlier models. The interior is basic sports car and it should be! It's a Corvette.

Love it so far! Traded my "2003" 350Z since the upgrades weren't coming through as promised by the Nissan dealers. The "Z" was awsome but the vette just blows it away in style and power. After seeng pics of the C6, I decided to grab the last year and commemorative edition of the C5. It's prooven and I prefer the old style looks over the new European style of the C6. The new version has some nice changes (400hp) but the front view and plastic grill look like the cheaper imports.

Edmund's review is totally wrong. For example, I've had my Corvette for over a year and the maintenance costs have been zero dollars. Absolutely nothing has broken or required repair. The whole review smacks of a "tree-hugging Eco-freak" or someone insanely jealous of Corvette owners.

Amazed at the quality, handling, and performance of this vehicle. The stock Goodyear tires are noiser than I expected but provide good handling for a runflat tire. Some cockpit noise through the exhaust in the 1500-2200 rmp range. Best driveability at about 70 mph when you outrun the tire noise. Handling on curves is exceptional. LS1 engine's power availability will likely exceed most people's expectation, even with the stock 350 cubic inch, 350 hp engine. Car has extraordinary balance and feel. Be sure to buy the Magnetic Selective Ride Control. It's not available as an aftermarket item. I didn't and I'm still kicking myself. I love this car!!

Until you own and drive one of these beast, its hard to call a car that rides this good a beast, you will never understand why Corvette owners love their cars so dearly. You not only become a member of a brotherhood but you become part of an elite association of car owners that give back to their communities.

What a wonderful car! Even though the C5 is out since 1997, this car still gets looks from almost everyone on the road. Value & performance for the dollar is second to none. Fit & finish were perfect. I added a ram air system and a performance exhaust system. If you think this car was fast before...this car really goes now.
