Yeah, my drive in a C6 (crappy convertible slushbox too) impressed the hell out of me too.  And you're right, the rumbly V8 and gobs of torque make the interior immediately forgivable for me too.  If I didn't have a kid, I'd be all over bringing back a lightly used C6 from the US. 

As for the obligatory driving shot, I can beat that one...

Did I miss your thread where you posted pics and driving impressions?

The slushbox is pretty bad though. Quite bad. I don't know why you'd ever buy a Vette without a manual.


I still think that a used C6 would be a wonderful car to project with for track duty, weekend fun, or for a toy. Rip out that crap interior, put in some proper seats, headers, and some mean FAT rims......good to go.

Agreed.  I drove the same slush-box cabrio as GD.  Although the interior was crap-tastic and the slush-box was a joke, I came away impressed.  The V8 was great and kicking out the rear end never got old.  I definitely preferred it over the Viper SRT-10 I drove on the same day...what a pig!
