Default Thinking About Selling the Vette

I have been recently thinking about selling my Vette and getting a used C6. I still haven't decided if that is what I am going to do, but it has definitely been on my mind a lot lately. I still haven't driven the C6, but for those of you who have had the pleasure of driving both the C5 and the C6, is it an huge difference between the driving experience?

Man, I wish I was loaded so we could buy your car, my friend! Good luck with that! I haven't driven either the C5 or the C6 so I can't comment, other than.. it's a Vette, so it's GOTTA be great!

The C6 is a very poweful puppy! The raw power is great, but, the technology is not soooo great, IMHO.

If anything there is too much technology in the C6.....it's best attribute is the shape and power, its worst attribute is the tech features.

Keyless doors/button starting are fine, but, only with a backup keyhole. The "In-Flight" dash projected onto the windshield is great (especially at night). But, the other "tech" features I could easily live without!

The C6 is a great car, but, I think, over engineered in the "tech" sense........just too many gadgets!.

I've always been a gadget/bells and whistles kind of guy, as long as it does cause a lot of problems, which is a problem some auto makes have. They put a ton of electronic that they never properly tested and when the product hits the market there are all kinds of bugs in the system.
