To any normal working class guy, a C6 Corvette really hits that sweet spot. You've got a car that can hang with anything else on the road in both style and performance. It's also surprisingly affordable and reliable as a daily driver. Plus it's a freaking Corvette. Nuff said. Go get one!

Of all the Corvette generations the C6 definitely might be the best looking in yellow. Hope you enjoy that car for a long long time. Thanks for watching.

By far the best feature of the C6 is the round tail lights. That said it is an excellent value. They have one of the best climate control systems I've had, the AC is ICE cold. Even with the LS2, with a few bolt ons, you're running 450 easy. Also has excellent visibility all around. Has plenty of room for luggage, golf bags, or whatever you're carrying. Plenty fast & very reliable while still getting near 25mpg on long runs. What more do ya want? Besides a C8. One final comment- replace the run flats or Goodyear with Michelin Pilots. One more comment- if you decide to replace the stock stereo system, you'll lose all the warning chimes.

Great review, I've got a 2009 Z51 car that is a stick and the LT1 interior. I bought it 1.5 yrs ago for $25k with 28k miles. I love how easy the car is to mod it and make it your own. These cars are by far the best bang for the buck that money can buy. Again, loved the review and I'm also a big believer that the C6 is the best that Chevrolet ever made. I've owned several other model years and this is by far my favorite - period!!!

It is simply the best. I am with you. Thank you for watching. It means alot.

I added about $20k to the base car, a Kenwood touchscreen unit, new amps and speakers a full K40 360 unit with radar and laser jammers in the front and back. A Veraram snake charmer, BTR Stage 3 cam, Texas Speed wrapped long tube headers no cats and a Borla Atak system. A bunch of other odds and ends and the best part is the factory Crystal Red paint. It was a 2008 / 2009 only color and it just steals the show every time i show up. The factory chrome rims are breathtaking. I wanted a car like you say, it's show and go, you can race it during the day and take it to the opera at night. It gets praises everywhere she goes.

Finally a reviewer that 'gets it' in terms of the subtle but sensuous nature of the exterior design compared to earlier and later, more angular designs. You might have mentioned that it's the lightest and shortest base model of all the modern Corvettes. Destined to be a classic like the C2's (in my book).

I also plan on adding carbon fiber to the interior but finding real carbon fiber for a C6 isn't as easy as one would think. My next project is to install a carbon fiber front wing to compliment the CF rear wing. The possibilities are endless with a Corvette. The aftermarket for Corvettes is thriving.

Its now 2023. I bought my C6(2006) 6-speed manual about 5 years ago. I do not like automatics in sport cars. I LOVE IT. Candy Apple Red convertible/tan interior. I put the performance exhaust on it about two years ago. It now has 39K miles. Nothing drives like a Corvette. All the bells and whistles except the back-up camera. Im thinking about adding this feature. I can sell it now for more than I gave for it five years ago. I know I'm prejudiced but it has the best body style of all the Corvettes. Dont get me wrong I love all Corvettes. As a matter of fact I want another one to go with this one. Maybe a 2018. For the money, I highly recommend The C6 series. Thank you for reading this. Tim Y

Thanks for being down to earth, knowledgeable and cool. Looking forward to future videos. The only few things that I would of liked to hear mentioned is some detailed performance data like reported average 0-60, 1/4 mile times. trap / top speed etc and maybe some comparisons with other year models and / or other comparable cars -I have a silver 98 Trans Am / tops all original with the LS1 -I think the Vette and T/A are the best looking and performance cars for the buck. The LS1 in stock form is still a beast and one of the most reliable motors. I'm the second owner (bought it from a lady here in Vegas) for $5100 back in 2014 -The only thing I have done is added a custom sound system. T/ A's are getting harder to find especially in like new condition. Going back to the Vette subject I'm really shocked I have not seen one c8 here in Vegas and I drive all over the city. I know they are rare and many are being sold for like 30-40k $$$ over sticker price. I"m keeping my eye out for a good deal on a c6 vert. I love the blueish / teal color

We love the C6. It's so much car for the money. And you can't go wrong with the LS motors. They are hard to beat. I like your TA. Those are clean. I miss my 98 Z28 with the LS1. Wish you luck finding a nice C6. Go 2008 or newer if you can. That way you get the LS3 and there is less worry about replacing the harmonic balancer. But all C6s are sweet. Once you are in something that much more lite and nimble like the C6 you will be quite happy i know. Maybe head outside of town a bit and find you some twisty roads and enjoy. Thanks again for watching and the sub!

@@DriveItOutI will definitely stay tuned in to your channel -hell you are already a natural. I'm a die hard car guy, but never made any videos. I"m sure I would be overthinking everything LOL , recently I had heard some of the Z06 's had some valvetrain issues and some with serious problems. I"m not sure what years. I haven't had time to google and check it out. Are you familiar with the problem the Z06's had ?

Thanks. So the C6 Zo6 had an issue with the valves dropping and frying engines. Supposedly this was a manufacturing defect that effected a small number of total cars, but its enough of a concern that common thought is to have this problem fixed when u own any C6 Zo6 as a preventative measure. Supposedly its around $1500-$2000 for the fix. This is very much like the infamous "IMS Bearing" issue that effects Porches from the early 2000s. It only fails on a small number of vehicles, but because it is so catastrophic if there is a fail most everyone replaces the IMS Bearing as a preventive measure. So it is definitely something to think about if you end up with a C6 Zo6. Here is a good video for info on that issue..... kzread.info/dash/bejne/c6mp1bNvhpvHmag.html

@@DriveItOut oh wow that's crazy frying the engines. You mean this wasn't a recall that GM paid for?

@DriveItOut

My understanding is GM just says it didn't affect enough cars to warrant a recall. Something like that happens 20 years ago to a handful of cars and you may never even hear about it, but with the prevalence of the internet and social media today news can travel so fast that before you know it a small problem can seem huge. So the problem with that LS7 may in fact be pretty rare, but it spooked people enough that everyone recommends the preventative fix. Otherwise they think your engine may just be living on a prayer. This is exactly what happened with the Porsche IMS Bearing. Once a few engines eat themselves the pictures are really ugly and they start making their way around all the forums and eventually everyone fears it could happen to them. Both the LS7 valve issue and the Porsche IMS Bearing issue are around $1500 to fix. So people buying both these cars used just plan on doing that work after they purchase the car. After that, both the Zo6 and mid 2000s Porches are extremely reliable. Doing the fix just helps you drive with piece of mind without worry of losing an engine. This can also mean there are really good deals to be found on these cars. I just wish you could take the top off of a C6 Zo6, but the roof is fixed.

The LS3 is arguably the best mass produced V8 in GM's history. Great review 👏

Yes, i think there's a strong argument for that. Thanks for watching! We drive this same car again in our 8 Generations of Corvette comparison review.... you may enjoy that.... it's the biggest video we've ever done. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qHWYpsp8aNXOkqg.htmlsi=ynKmzSCHIn96N_YE

If anybody is looking to get a C6, definitely get a 08+ with a manual. Not bashing the auto, I have an auto c4, but I think that's the best drivers experience for this generation. I have a black 2011 manual. Great video BTW.

True that.. We were specifically referring to the base model. There was a FRC option on the base model C5 that was taken away for the base model C6. We should have been more clear. Thanks for watching and for the input. Much appreciated.

In my opinion. The c6 is still the best looking vette . ive enjoyed my 2008 red convertible. Z51 pkg. Once you've had the best. You want for nothing else.... My buddy bought a new c5. Then a new c6 2007. Finally he bought a grand sport c6. His motto. You don't drive up. You dont pull up... You arrive!! Good job little brother...

Thats a stellar ride. The grand sport is the sweet spot for sure. It's so well balanced as a car for both street and track. Absolutely dig the C7 Grand Soort. And, nice choice on the manual. Thanks for watching!

i think the c8 is hitting the supercar territory,, frigging thing looks like a ferrari, mid engine.. the zr1 of that model will be supercar level for sure. . I kind of like the older corvettes like yours.. They actually look like corvettes.... think the c6 generation looks great..

I have a C5, C6 C7 and I going to buy a C8, remember a vette is always a vette

Agreed. Just hope they bring back the Manual Transmission. Thanks for watching!

I have the same year and color. Have it 9 years and no issues. It's amazing how many people compliment it. Hard to believe for a car that would sell now for about 25k. Why spend more than double on a new Vette when this one will depreciate slower and depreciate from a lower dollar amount. In 9 years my cars value went from 36k to 25 or so. That's only 10k depreciation in 9 years. Buy a new one for 70 and in 10 years with low milage it's in the 35 range

I am looking to buy a C6 in the near future. I think I want an automatic, ls3, targa top, maybe a bolt on car if it has not been beat on. My budget is 30k but I’m flexible.

You'll find one. Especially since you are going with an automatic. They don't bring quite the premium the manuals do. Most people know the automatic transmission got better in 2008 at the same time they switched to the LS3, but if i remember right they tuned the automatic to be even better in 2012. Happy shopping!

True that. We were specifically referring to the base model. There was a fixed roof version of the C5 with a short back window and traditional trunk before the zo6 debuted in 01. We should have been more specific. Thanks for watching and we always love feedback.

C6 almost didn’t happen. Glad it did.

As just one example, in the last month I was driving my Crystal Red 2008 in traffic and I literally had someone roll their window down and shout 'MAN that's a beautiful car!' Is there ANY other 12 y.o. car that still has this panache?!
