[Solved] 2001-08 Corvette opinions

Topic starter

Back in 2001 I bought a brand new C5 Corvette. Traded it on a C6 05 lease which I then traded on an 08 lease. Loved all 3. The 2011 was too expensive so my Corvette dream was over. What do you think of 01-08 Vettes now? I know they're GM but they were a blast!

All Corvettes are finicky. I've often said if it was any other car, people would scream about the endless problems. But because it is a Corvette, that makes problems ok.

 

I've owned my share and I think I'm over them. As the wife says, "That's a lot of money for a plastic car."

 

For those who want a little "light reading", here is a link to JUST THE BASIC C5 Corvette common problems:

I have to say, I've made a lot of money working on them though so yeah, I love seeing them around. {black}:cool:  


Thank you very much!
