Non-Owner With A Dilemma

cossie1600 · 01-26-2011, 09:01 PM

I had a 2005 C6 with 20K miles, it had to have its rear end/transmission/wheel bearings replaced. I traded it in for a Prius as I was sick and tired of it. Even though it wasn't very reliable, but it is faster than my 370 by quite a bit. The Corvette owners are something. The racers are pretty cool, but some of them think too much of themselves. The non-racers are usually just old and grumpy, they prefer to spend their time stroking their egos and obama bashings.

Call me an ***, but I absolutely hate the guys with the older Corvettes thinking their cars were closed to the C6. Thank god the 280Z and 300Z guys don't do that.

I don't see a lot of 370 owners, but the 350 owners are definitely younger and can be a little immature sometimes. (No offense to anybody, of course I am immature myself at times)

White looks awesome when the light hits it just right and you see the metallic flakes.

i used to be a fan of red cars and have owned 3 but nowadays, they look too flashy. so i would pick white.

I was looking at used when I bought mine, so I would have taken what was available in my price range. So I ended up with white. And I love it. Like steveg78 says, the sun brings out all kinds of tones in the pearl white finish. I think the color compliments the lines of the car as well.

I looked at all the white cars we had locally and the bumpers were freakin horrible. Make sure to check the match in the daylight if your going white.
