The top was defective and they are using a different vendor or material, I cant remember which, but the problem was supposed to be fixed after some build date that I do not know of.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Gents, I am in the market to obtain a new daily driver - I had my eye on the C6 Vette, I went for a test drive yesterday an I was very surprise on the handling and response of the car. I know the interior is a bit cheesy, but for a daily driver to NYC, the interior is not a big deal for me. The Nav and radio was good, the seat were comfortable. My question is simply this, Has anyone own or had a lengthy experience with am 06 C6 Vette ? I am not concern with older models, only the C6. Thank in advance, my brothers! Oh, just to be clear, the C6 is not taken over for my 996 - NOTHING WILL! Except a F430.

POST 2Original post

Friend has one that he has put a few thousand miles on. Look into the top (targa) delaminating, that is the only problem I know of that hes has had. The top was defective and they are using a different vendor or material, I cant remember which, but the problem was supposed to be fixed after some build date that I do not know of. The tops were literally tearing off down the road causing cars to get damaged behind them, I am not making that up even though I bash corvettes all the time. Anyways I have owned 'vettes and I will say this, they are probably the most reliable sports car on the road. The engines in those cars last 250-300k miles easily. But it is common sense, all you have to look at is hp/liter. Big motor with low hp/liter, same theory as a diesel that last 1 million miles or so. Also they are the easiest to make huge hp on. But I still will take my Porsche over a 'vette anyday if it came down to it.

POST 3Original post

Why would you get a Vette for a daily? Usually someone gets a different genre of car other than the Porsche for a daily - more utility, more room, different style, etc. How about an M45?

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Nutbeem, I do not require more utility or room. IMHO the Vette is a diffrent Style and Genre, The feeling it provides is so diffrent from the 996. Remember the Law of life - It is All RELATIVE :-)

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

M5 Too big - I only want a two seater.

POST 9Original post

I've owned three vettes, a 94, 95 and a 02 Z06. I used the 94 and 95 as daily drivers (except in snow). Very reliable cars, the Z06 was the most reliable car I ever owned. They are not great cars in the rain, or the cold, under 50 degrees you'll be spinning the tires. I never would take my vette to NYC. They are too low to the ground and I wouldn't want to park a fiberglass car in the street or parking garage.

POST 10Original post

How about a Boxster? At least you can drop the top on the nice days. The only way I would get another sports car is if it gave me a completely different driving experience, like a convertible. The Vetter is just so.... just so..... just soooo... gold chainey.

POST 11Original post

how abooouuuut a chevy pickup truck? huk huk!

POST 12Original post

I would totally add another 996 to my garage. If my M3 blows up, which it probably won't.... 113k miles of LA traffic, still original clutch, WTF?

POST 13Original post

Ever thought of a CL55 it is class and every option you could ever want... Very nice in traffic and room for 4 in a 2 door.

POST 16Original post

Pre owned SL500? I would choose that over a Corvette - I recently bought a pre owned S500 with 39,000 miles from my father in law and I love it.

POST 18Original post

Subie WRX, take out the rear seats if needed,

POST 19Original post

The new BMW 330 with two doors and two turbos? Performance is near the current M3

POST 20Original post

You mentioned your interest in the C6 Vette but I drove a C4 & C5 Corvette daily for years in the Chicago winter too. They were incredibly reliable. I would buy a C6 in a heartbeat. I have 2 friends that drive their c6's year 'round in Chicago without problems. They are great cars for the money. Adam
