When is the next body style Z due? This model looks dated and needs refreshed badly.

Talk about an outdated car? The Corvette is near the top of that list. Actually a great car but I can't get past the awful seats.

Wrong again. I have driven 3 of them. Drove it when it first came out. Yellow Manual with Sport, but zero discount so I waited. Drove a used one a year later that the dealer called me on, it was a rattle box, but I don't know it's history.

Then I went back recently and drove the Automatic. I was expecting to see some changes for the 2011 - yet nothing.

And I will NEVER forget my test drive in the Z. The salesman said that the car can go a long way even though the gas gauge says E. We went about 2 miles and the car ran out of gas. So I got to sit in the car for 1 hour until someone from the dealer came by with a gas can.

So your troll verification sucks. I have been a member here for years. I like the car, but I am waiting for the refresh to change a few of the items I don't care for.

I guess you never complain about anything or want anything to change. That's fine with me. But I like progress, if I wanted things to stay the same I would buy a classic 240Z. Or maybe a 90's 300TT.

If the seats are what are bugging you, that's really not such a big deal. Seats are easy to fix.

Truth.

Convert, are you still thinking Vette? I meant to ask, what trim/options/year?

I already bought.

2011 Z06, 1LZ package (2LZ got me blue tooth, heated seats, adjustable steering-wheel, a "memory" package, and the Bose sound system, which by all accounts is actually worse than the base system as the head unit doesn't have the wheaties for the extra speaker. Since none of that stuff did it for me, I just went 1LZ. If you are driving a car like this in weather that requires heated seats, you automatically fail).

Arctic white, competition gray rims, black head-lamp over-ride.

I am headed to Bowling Green to watch her roll off the assy. line this coming Monday. Here is a picture of someone else's car that is done exactly like mine.

Thanks! I would say I would post pix in the off-topic section, but those are verboten in BG. Won't even let me take my cell-phone into the plant.
