"surprised at the disdain for corvettes. as a kid I always wanted one."
Don't be . I don't no what these guys are talking about .vettes are for old folks? Maybe a decade ago .but now? I never seen so many young guys driving vettes . Since the c7 dropped the prices for c6 vettes dropped significantly,hell the zr1 can be had for the 50 or so ish and you got 638 horses from the jump . You can get a c5 zo6 for no more than 30gs .
They handle great also. Check out car and drivers c7 grandsport vs the Porsche 911 and see which one wins.
