i know i would love to have one, but im sure my family and gf will kick my *** for getting it

The new Vette starts @ $44k....

Not to bring up that bowtie slugger again, but it would be nice to have a 400 HP V8 to throw around every now and then, of course not as a DD....

Just dreaming....

I'll tell you what; if they fixed the production quality issues with the C6 vette I'd be sorely tempted to buy one. The engine is nothing short of glorious.

I drove a CTS-V for quite some time. All I will say is I will not be buying one any time soon.

most of the first year issues of the C6 have been fixed, I think I will be trading my 35 on an 08 next year....hp is now at 430, it is a beautiful ride

Thanks to MyGiantCircle for the great scans! I had a feeling C&D left out the pretty photos from their online review -- support them and buy their issue

Oh pssh I already know about that thread. I want to know what the Blue Slate G37 looks like under sunny weather. Easy said... I want to see how the sunlight changes the look of the color of the car.

Thanks for the post. The pics are nice. The review seemed overall positive except for Vanderwerp's comments. He seems to still call the clutch tough, shifter vibrates and engine is coarse. I guess we'll see in a few months.
