    Thank you. I wish you the best in getting yourself a Vette, it's a fun car to goof around in.

GM can intrude on the Vette's HP with the Camaro but it will just never handle as well. Way too heavy.
    And that's one of the things that drew me to the Camaro, it's aggressive looking, unfortunately, that's where the aggressiveness ends. Don't get me wrong, I liked the Camaro, just didn't love it like I have my Vette's.

    Thank you. My first Vette was black, my second was velocity yellow, and the Camaro was black, so this blue is gonna take some getting used to.

    Thank you. The Camaro is a great car, but it's just not a great handling car like a Corvette. The Vette has quicker throttle response, cornering, etc, the fun factor just aint there with the Camaro.

    Welcome aboard to another Vette driver!

    I saw pictures once of a new Camaro next to a C5.....that Camaro is Really big.
    Thank you. Yeah, the Camaro is huge compared to the Vette.

    I think you made the right choice with the Vette! I'm sure it's a much nicer and more fun car!

    The paint looks flawless too! Please post more pics! Also, you need to update your avatar.
    Thank you. Yeah, I sacrificed the rear seats, but they never got used anyway. I've had two Vette's previous to this one, and just couldn't enjoy the Camaro like I did my Vette's. The Camaro is a nice looking car, but it's about as agile as a 350lb woman on roller skates. The C6 handles like it's on rails, it's just a really fun car to drive.

    Thank you. Nope, not this time around, my last two Vette's were manuals, this one's an A6.
