Depends... Could bring a bunch of attention and guys like you will go out in droves to get their retirement car early and of course with rising demand....

I like it! I do think that GM should just stop putting Mirrors on their performance vehicles though. You can't see what is behind you anyway with the tinny rear window and huge side blindspot. Just make the the side mirrors and rear view mirrors into video screens that show what is behind and on the side of you.

It's because the 90% clientele of 70 year olds driving them don't have strength enough to accelerate. They idle all 1100 miles a year they drive them. Only need a windshield for that.

ROFL no shit Justin. No vette has ever seen more than 2500 rpm. They should just toss in the 4 cylinder out if the Cruze and drop the price by 5k. Theyd prolly sell more and make it easier to meet the upcoming CAFE standards.

There are a lot of children talking Shit about old men having there vettes. I don't believe any of those children can actually drive a c5 much less a c7 to the limit. There are a lot of old men competing while you guys type on your keyboards.

There's a lot of old men who drive the shit of Porsches too. It certainly doesn't mean there isn't a much larger number who don't, let's say, push them very hard or very often.
BTW, I believe the average age of a new Corvette buyer is 58. Hint, don't go by who you talk to on the fucking internet . . .

That's still up there in age. I certainly don't fit the bill of old, but i'd sure love to rag on a c5 as my DD. Lord knows the 88 has been getting some use.
