#1
awsome looking
Source: Cars.com

..."This car has the power when needed. The only problem I had was with the harmonic balancer that needed replacing.
If you do your own work it is a tight fit to get at parts. Otherwise the handling and the speed make up for one minor problem."...

Legend, the ultimate name
Source: MSN Autos

...has good acceleration and braking, has been amazingly trouble free, is comfortable and has a very nice sound system (even does great with pipe organ music). Cons: I would like quicker down shifts when it is necessary to stomp on the throttle for some quick acceleration when already underway. Overall: Great car. Why did Honda ever drop the name "Legend"; what a great name. Who cared if every owner said "I drive a Legend" instead of "I drive an Acura". When someone says "I drive a Corvette", everyone with enough sense to appreciate handling, ride, and...

My 7th corvette

..."Bought the car 7 years old with 5086 on the odometer,
was looking for a 05 but found this low mileage one and bought it and not sorry at all handles like a new one and less problems than the C6 models."...

I love my Corvette
Source: Cars.com

..."I searched for months for this car online. I finally found the right color and year,
bought airfare to go see the car in person, took it to a dealership in the area with a corvette certified mechanic to have the car checked out.
This is a great service provided by Chevrolet dealerships.
I highly recommend it. Paid for the car, then found an enclosed vehicle carrier to ship to my home state.
Everything went as planned. I love my Corvette Z06! It is scary fast, handles like a dream, and rides better than my truck. I would recommend this car to anyone. See you on the...

The Goodest Car

A mans car

...Pros: This cars is the best. I mean V-10 what can compare.
How could it get ranked lower then the corvette. The corvette is nice but come on. Cons: Price, Thats what I like about corvette power for cheaper. Overall: Da Bizomb...

GM will never build a car like this again.
Source: Cars.com

...Passing and merging are very easy. The only thing I can complain about is the placement of the seat heaters (on the side of the front seats). It makes it difficult to turn sideways to get out of the car without putting pressure on the controls. Also, there are no radio/climate controls on the steering wheel or A/C/heat vents for the reat passengers. Strange, since they were standard on the 1996 Sedan Deville. It also seems like the 96 Deville has more front legroom, but even so I doubt anyone of any height could possibly be uncomfortable in the front seats of this car. Overall, this is a...

Fastest Car I've Ever Owned!
Source: Cars.com

...On the hiways at legal speeds above 180 MPH (honest) several Ferraris, Porsches, M3s, M5s, Jaguars, Mercedes AMGs and even some serious bikes found out the hard way that my C5 is really fast! It has only 27,000 miles on it now and it glistens like new and turned heads in at least 10 countries and still gets looks in the USA! No one easily beats a Chevrolet Corvette...trust me...this 65 year old man has owned and driven some of the best cars made worldwide and this is the best! I wish it had better interior leather and the dash didn't reflect in the windshield. The seats could be more...

A true GT Sports Car!!!
Source: Cars.com

...a world class sports car, relatively inexpensive for what you get compared to other cars in this class, a true value for the money, HUD , excellent iconic styling, low, sleek, wide. The wide tires make it formidable for all would be sports cars that try to out handle your car. You will be in your garage just staring at the car, and thinking that you just acquired a Corvette. Be mindful of parking; that front chin air dam is low and you will need to be aware of this when parking. Also, learn the "art" of getting in and out of a Corvette, it is an art. Seating for 2 only. A Corvette is not a...

1st Vette
Source: Cars.com

..."Iam the 3rd owner of this vette. It had 24,000 miles on it when I bought it.
I've put 5,000 miles on it, including a long road trip to Las Vegas.
I couldn't be happier with this car, extreme performance, excellent handling, great looks, and decent mileage to boot.
Over 27 mpg on the road trip. If you've never owned a vette and are thinking about buying one, go for it. No buyers remorse here."...

Why should I also consider these?

While it may have several formidable rivals, the Corvette’s prime nemesis remains the Dodge Viper.

The Dodge now boasts an 8.4-liter V-10 engine pumping out an even 600 horsepower as its sole powertrain option and is humbled only by the ZR1.

Nissan’s GT-R also shows that it has what it takes to topple the Corvette, even approaching the ZR1 in performance.

Combined with its all-wheel-drive system and sophisticated electronics, the 480-horsepower Nissan proves itself worthy on more than one count.

The next closest competitor to the Corvette would have to be the Porsche 911.

With its range of models (rear- and all-wheel drive, naturally aspirated, and turbo powered), the German icon offers more choice and arguably more refinement than the American, though at a significant cost.

While the Porsche Boxster lines up nicely against the base Corvette, its six-cylinder engine is no match for the Chevy’s muscular V-8.

The same goes for Nissan’s 370Z, although the sound from the Z’s tailpipes may persuade even the most loyal of ‘Vette fans.
