- Pros
- Beauty & Power
- Cons
- Tough to leave - needs a fixed support handle for driver to exit
Purchased As New
Absolutely love this car. Performance and hadling are supurb. Took long road trip in horrendous thunderstorms and heavy rain amidst 18 wheelers and heavy traffic. Held the road - no drifting, solid ride and felt safe. Still turns heads - especially with top off. Third vette but this is the best ever. Still come out from shopping to find someone just standing and staring at car.The curves are gorgeous. Black finish just glistens and looks menacing. Bose system is very nice. Great package for money....read morehide

Purchased As New
I just bought a new 2008....I test drove a 2009 Z06 and fell in love with the look and feel...BUT..it was more than I wanted to spend..found a dealer with a new 2008 and got a great deal. I have owned a 1965,1971, and 72 vette....and the handling on this one is outstanding! PLUS, I couldn't pass up that warranty. you can't go wrong with this car!...read morehide

- Pros
- BEAST PERFORMANCE, TORQUE THAT TUGS UR HEAD BACK, BEST FUEL ECONOMY FOR A V8
- Cons
- A LITTLE ROUGH ON THE ROAD
Purchased As Used
THIS IS MY FIRST VETTE AND I ALWAYS WANTED ONE WHEN I WAS LITTLE AND NOW I HAVE ONE. PRETTY SWEET PERFORMANCE, GOOD HANDLING, AND GOOD FUEL ECONOMY. THE 0-60 ON AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS PHENOMENAL, AND FUEL ECONOMY IS PERFECT. ONLY THING THAT BUGS ME IS MY PARENTS ALWAYS COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW THE CAR IS SMALL AND I CAN'T FIT ANYONE IN IT. ALSO IT'S A LITTLE ROUGH ON THE ROAD, BUT THAT DOESN'T BOTHER ME. OH WELL, ANYWAY THIS IS THE BEST CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN AND PLANNING TO KEEP FOREVER....read morehide

- This car is all pros and no cons
Purchased As New
This car performs just the way it was built to perform... It's a factory production HOT ROD and it is what it is. So if you want a car that can get your heart pounding this is the car for you.

- Pros
- Unbelievably fast, terrific looking, a real head turner.
- Cons
- Somewhat difficult to get in and out of (but I am over age 60).
I am always approached at the gas station, grocery sote, etc. by someone wanting to look at the car and talk about it. This car gets peoples attention. It is the best valued exotic car on the road today.

- Pros
- Lots of features, comfortable and lots of power, also it gets over 28 mpg at 85 mph on interstate.
- Cons
- Road noise can be a bit much on long trips.
Great looks, lots of power, fun to drive, 18-19 mpg stop and go and over 28 at 85 mph on the interstate. I'll bet the 28 at 85 beats the Prius.

- Pros
- Incredible bang 4 buck, definite head turner, superlative LS7 engine
- Cons
- Glare on NAV and no MP3/iPod support, extra cost colors, no lift off roof
This is really a phenomenal sport car. The performance is AWESOME. 99.999999% of other cars on the road are completely inferior to this Corvette, and the Z06 can hold its own with exotic imports that cost many times more. It is not only an outstanding performer, but has all the creature comforts to go with it, plus unlike most other sports cars, has plenty of storage space in the trunk and better than average visibility through all four windows. The only "bad" thing about owning and driving a car like this, is that on public roads it has no place it can go anywhere its top speed potential, short of the Autobahn! At less than four seconds to go from Zero to 60 is proof positive this ride is absolute king oif the road. As for the price, near the end of the 2008 model year, Chevy dealers were practically giving this cars away. Well, not quite, but GREAT DEALS were not hard to find. Worried about about buying an expensive sports car hard to keep running? Think again, all Corvettes are covered for 5 years and 100k miles by Chevrolet, plus OnStar is standard equipment if there should ever be a need for roadside assistance. It even gets pretty good gas mileage on the highway. In short, this is my DREAM CAR!...read morehide
