My wife and I have been very surprised about the reaction the car gets. Sometimes it feels and sounds like mosquitoes (Honda Civics, STIs, & etc.) are chasing the C7.
"Bart, with $10,000, we'd be millionaires! We could buy all kinds of useful things like...love!"
My comments on my 2008 coupe are a bit further down the message list. My Corvette club runs a nice HPDE that allows a person to try out the performance of the car, and I hope you might have that option. Do you have manual or automatic transmission?
